Hello,

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
