What kind of real world gas mileage should I expect out of a small VW diesel?
I am interested to know what kind of real world mileage I should expect out of a VW Gulf, Jetta, or Beetle diesel. A: I have a friend that’s a VW TDI “nut” and he does some modification to them as soon as he gets one. He’s also modified quite a few TDI’s for people that he knows. He orders euro injectors and also increases the pump pressure. He drives around a lot with a computer hooked up to monitor his TDI (yeah hes a nut), in the fall he drove over 3000 miles on a fishing trip and his worst mileage was 58 and his best was 62 on a tank of fuel. His cars all have a manual transmission and he’s drives them to see what kind of mileage he can get.
