Well that's bout 27mpg...

Depending, but if you driving style is heavy that's about right.

Your needed will drop right down as you touch the throttle and f your only noticing some at night your seeing condensation.

Wouldn't hurt to give her a full service and see if anything improves...

But as said...seems quite normal for. M57D30

why does the mpg needle go to 0 mpg though? and its not normal, just been speakin to a dude , recons his gets 150 for £20 quid,, 100 miles for £ 30 is 24 mpg ,, mmmm , maybe your right a good service , air filter etc would sort it a bit, but even hardly touchin accelerator , the needle shows 0mpg, can the mpg needle be trusted?

ive only had the cars 2 days , maybe once i get more used to it it will improve eh? plus its an automatic, with the 5 speed sport option,, i must admit to having been booting it a bit, although not too much really, im going to have diamond tuning do a diagnostics check on the cars ecu, maybe theres something simple up with it, or as you say a full service too, could be something daft like air filer , but to be honest the cars absolutely crackin

I have only had mine a month, and the computer is showing 25.2mpg. I will admit I have a very heavy right foot. My last car a Mondeo 2.2 tdci with a dreamscience remap done 30 mpg.

got around 88 miles just under a quarter tank, so i recon thats slightly less than 3 gallons, call it 30 mpg ,, thats not too bad eh? but on motorway its much better, wish i had got a manual car lol it would be easy 5 mpg better

      Hi. Do you have a light on the dash? It could be that someone fitted an emulator ?

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      I'm am sorry if I am doing this incorrectly but I have searched and not found anything related to this but I am still learning all of this. Does anyone know about the yellow airbag/ seat belt connector under the driver’s seat? I am sure the previous owner has changed this but I am wondering if anyone has seen this before? If so, should I remove the butt connectors and solder the wires? Should the wires be twisted all the way to the yellow connector? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, JayMe

      Connectors in the boot next to the battery

      Hi - I have a 2007 1.6L Petrol 1 series and it has wire connectors in the boot near the battery but I don't know what they are meant to connect to. Are they just spare or is there a part missing? The car currently not starting but we think it is a BCM fault but just wanted to know what the cables in the boot are meant for. Any help would be greatly appreciated be gratefully appreciated as we can't read the fault codes as we think the BCM is faulty and the car won't idle properly but there might be some other issue. Regards Andrew

      Bmw x1 2012 won't start

      Morning Marvin You need a Diagnostic Scan with a BMW capable system , I assume that when the Footwell control module and and Battery were replaced they were correctly registered to your chassis ? Has your Mechanic checked the starter solenoid ? much cheaper than a starter Hope this helps Dave
