How many kilometers can the Audi A6L still run when prompted to refuel?

Audi A6L can still run for 80 to 100 kilometers when prompted to refuel under normal driving conditions. Precautions for refueling the car: Refuel according to the gasoline grade marked on the fuel tank cap. Always follow the gasoline grade required in the vehicle's manual or as indicated on the fuel tank cap. A higher gasoline grade only means better anti-knock performance, not necessarily better engine output power. The correct way to refuel is to use the gasoline grade that matches your car's engine compression ratio. Refuel when the fuel light comes on. If the fuel light is on, it means the fuel level is below the fuel pump. If the fuel pump does not get proper cooling, its lifespan may be reduced or it may even get damaged. The fuel pump is not cooled by the fuel in the tank but by the fuel it draws in. As long as fuel is still being drawn, the cooling process continues. Location of the fuel filler switch: Different car models have different fuel filler cap switches. Generally, the switch is located on the driver's side door panel or near the seat, next to the trunk release button, with a fuel pump icon on it. Some cars have a press-type fuel filler cap without a separate switch. Pressing the left side of the fuel tank cap will open it. Some unique car models require a key to open the fuel filler cap for added security.
When driving an Audi A6L, the fuel gauge alerts you to refuel, and you can generally still drive about 80 to 100 kilometers. The fuel tank is quite large, and the remaining fuel calculation is quite conservative. When I was driving on the highway in economy mode, I could stretch it to 120 kilometers, but in congested city traffic, the fuel consumption is faster, and it only lasts about 60 kilometers. Don’t delay; find a gas station as soon as possible to avoid breaking down halfway, especially on rainy days when the braking system also relies on the fuel pump. By the way, regular maintenance of the fuel tank sensor can reduce false alarms and ensure the readings are accurate.
When the A6L reminds you to refuel, the displayed range is calculated based on remaining fuel and average fuel consumption, typically showing 70 to 150 km. The actual range depends on your driving habits. Having driven this car for years, I notice higher fuel consumption and faster range drop when using AC or aggressive acceleration; maintaining steady 80 km/h yields better mileage. Don’t rely solely on this indicator—refuel promptly. Low fuel levels affect engine cooling and fuel pump lifespan. Early action ensures safety.
