My name is Brian and I recently bought a 2006 vw passat 1.6 petrol car in a private sale. I filled the car having got it back to my home last friday, and today being wednesday I have been monitoring the fuel gauge out of curiosity. I have noticed that the dial seems to be going down quick. So far I have been only driving to and from work which is approx 10 mins drive from one end of town to the other. I prev had a 1.4 vw bora and the dial would stay roughly on the same spot for 2-3days doing the same amount of driving. I appreciat it is a bigger engine, but I do not know if it is my own wrong perception or if this is correct? As a rough estimate, the lines between sections on the dial: doing two days to and from my place of work as said above (4 journeys total) will roughly take from one line to the next. I was wondering can you advise on this ratio if it apears average or otherwise? Any and all help much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Brian
