My 02 TDI gets a consistant average of 48MPG my last tank was my first in a year over 50 at 51.4MPG.

i think that the reserve refers to over the tank. i mean you have tank compacity then there is room in the filler neck. we TDI-ers have a mod, the ventectomy mod which holds open the ven so we can get in as much diesel as possible right up to the top of the neck. this is not advised for gassers as gasoline vaporizes more readily than diesel.
