I just got my Golf a week ago and am thoroughly enjoying it so far. I drove from Raleigh, NC to Greenville, SC hitting some traffic and shifting from 6th to 5th occasionally to vary engine RPM and averaged 46.5 mpg's. With only 500 miles, I can imagine that number just going up in the future.
The only thing I'm slightly disapointed in is that I find this car more difficult than the average car to start on moderate to steep hills. I feel like I have to give the car around half throttle with the hill hold feature to prevent it from stalling. At this point I feel like I'll be doing a clutch job at 50k.
I just wanted to see if anybody else felt like this or is there something I should be concerned about. Thanks for any input!
