You guys will recall that I earlier said that the car felt sluggish compared to my last f10 m5.
Well after today's long drive I parked the car for Round 30 mins.
When I returned to go out for the evening I started the car and began my journey.
It felt like the car been remapped. It was super responsive. I know I probably sound mad right now but I'm sat here thinking I hope it wasn't a dream.
I've had something similar - just had to top oil 1600 miles after breaking service. That was about 200 miles ago. Did a short trip yesterday - 25 miles and the car returned 28.8mpg - never seen it this high before, had I been travelling further I am sure it would have went up further. Found this strange myself
