Hi all,
Excellent forum. I purchased a 2004 Passat back in November of 2009 w/79,000 miles on it. Haven’t done much driving, only added 2,000 miles since. It's a beautiful car with lots of power.
However, I noticed that with this car I only get about 35mpg highway and 30 mpg for in-town driving, compared to other TDI's with 45/40 mpg. Is this typical?
I've already replaced air/fuel filters and oil changed w/Mobile1 Turbo-Diesel 5w-40 oil.
Any recommendations and/or opinions appreciated.
