450? How many gallons does the b8 hold?

From memory a B8 had a 63 litre tank from empty, new B9 is 45 litre tank unless you spec the bigger 54 at no extra cost.

That's quite a drop. Is this common with newer models verses older ones ?

Think it's to make room for the ad blue tank, and no doubt emissions tests

I see, just the diesels then

Ah that makes complete sense now. That's a tiny tank for a big car. I'm sure my first car, a Vauxhall Corsa B had a 45l tank

Filled it up again today after 500 miles on the clock my range now reads 525 - up 110 miles from Monday when I picked it up

It's all about adding miles, essential as mpg is all based on the averages

@scottoliver252 Could you please advise if your iPhone needs to be plugged in by cable for Carplay to work with all apps, etc, or does it just connect by Bluetooth? If it does require a cable is it just ur standard Apple cable or does it need to be an Audi one?

Lovely car by the way.

To use carplay you do have to have the phone plugged in to the usb socket in the arm rest. Pretty sure you can use any cable.

Thanks! I always thought so but the dealer was saying otherwise. At least I now know I can use my existing cable.

It also helps to get the weight down, therefore helping economy
