Your vehicle is rated at 16mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. Your vehicle works out to 14.28 mpg. It depends if your driving in the city or on the highway. In the city, this would be acceptable, on the highway this would be very poor though. Also, it could depend on the actual mileage of your vehicle, as a engine wears out, often the car loses a small amoubt of efficiency, which would in turn lose a few mpg's. A few things you could do to improve your mpg would be to change your spark plugs to E3 type from made by Bosch, they give me at least an extra 3 mpg on my Honda Accord. Also make sure you have a clean air filter and a new fuel filter, all of these will pay for themselves at the pump after a short amoubnt of time. Happy Motoring! :)

I have a 2002 audi quatro A4 V6. the battery goes dead overnight - not always, intermittent. new battery. something is drawing power. no check engine light on. under 100,000 miles on the car.

unhook battery positive and install test light in between the post and the cable. if it has a draw it should come on dim. then unplug the fuses one at a time and when you pull the fuse and the light gose out thats the circut with the draw. then refer to what that fuse runs and correct the problem by inspecting that part and repairing as needed.

Oil for 2007 AUDI A4 2.0t Quatro

The best balance of price, quality, availability that I have found is Mobil1 synthetic - it's on Audi's approved oils list. With the 2.0T engine, you absolutely want to use synthetic (the Audi turbo fours are known for oil sludge issues), and you want to do a SeaFoam treatment every 15k miles or so - that combination will keep your engine in great running shape.

Audi A6 2.7T Quatro 115K

It may be a wheel bearing going bad. The A4 is known for wheel bearing issues, and the A6 shares many drivetrain parts with the A4.
