    Hi guys,

    On the front display of the A4 is one option to display miles until a refuel is needed. eg "150 mi"

    Just wondering how accurate this is?

    When the display reaches "0 mi" how many more miles could you get? Would there be a certain reserve amont of fuel availible?

    I guess 0 miles would be accurate

    No 0 miles wouldn't be accurate, i know someone who today drove for a further 15 miles after the clock hit 0 miles. So thats why i was wondering how far it would actually go...

    That piece from Top Gear is vey interesting

    I'd find I normally have 10-15 kms when I'm reading empty. It could be more, but at that stage I'm getting kinda nervous... :p

    if its a petrol model why not carry a can of petrol and find out, with a diesel model its a bit more difficult:) (unless the VW tdi is self bleeding in which case go for it)

    Ya the guy that did 15 miles yesterday was sweating it at that stage, i was just curious how much more he would have got out of it...
