dont have a heavy right foot to start :lol: :lol: but also keep the car within services intervals and regually cheak oil levels. If you modify the car in anyway engine wise its fair to say expect to alter fuel consuption. B)

drive it in highest gear the car is comfotable in i have been getting around 450 miles to my tank in my s3 and thats with gunning it every now and then the trick to this is when in and around town in steddy flowing traffic i put the s3 in 6 gear and gently apply just enough pressure that the car will sit at 30-35 mph and not shudder at just over the 1k revs mark some times i have to drop to 4th and then back to 5th but as a rule i tend not to use the gears below 4th when driving around town as it increas's my mpg and gives me more fual for when i have some chave in a punto wanting to race me from the lights
