Hi guys!

I would like to ask you if my average consumption 7,8l /100km isn't too much?

I have S80 II, 2008, 120kW, 2.4D, six-speed gearbox.

Our V70 D5, 120kW five-speed gearbox, from 2006 takes 6,5l maximum.

I'm afraid everything's fine with S80. I know it is winter and the consumption should be higher in cooler weather but still...it is only 120kW and I suppose TDI engine shouldn't be so thirsty. I drive mainly 180 - 200km twice a week. Here in Prague I drive maximum once a week cca 20km so I use this car mostly for longer distance drives.

Thank you for any advice.
