According to volkswagen.co.uk, they say that typical consumption is 1-1.5 litres per 620 miles, which is suspiciously close to 1000 km that I think it’s probably just an imperial conversion.
From what I can find online, the A6 has a 17-litre tank, so a full tank should get you somewhere between 10000 and 17000 km. So, probably enough to get you to the next service, unless you’re lead-footed.
Having spent several hours helping a friend completely flush thick sludge from his cooling system after he mixed two different types of coolant… I can assure you coolant isn’t just coolant.

Well I put a gallon of WATER in the add-blu tank of a 2011 Volvo FH last night,
runs like a Swiss watch!!![emoji56]
Is it still running ok then ,or has it thrown up a fault yet?

Perhaps you could have spent more time with him replacing his head gasket too?

I’m not brave enough to run it out of adblu, if it derates power does it come back ok when ya fill up again.
