If you live in the sticks that's about right and not bad.
Motorway at 80'ish on cruise I get 35-36mpg.

22.3 is pretty good; I average 18-19 mixed driving.

Don't forget that US and British MPG calculations are different. You're actually getting the same MPG as him. 19 US = roughly 22.8 Imperial

BaschurchJim · 02-17-2020, 01:14 PM

Thanks for that guys

JBala84 · 02-17-2020, 02:35 PM

Wow. Inner town (london) I get 14 mpg.

sumairm · 02-17-2020, 04:27 PM

A lot of city's driving, usually around 18-20mpg average

cudakid03 · 02-17-2020, 05:34 PM

I do try. But once the engine is warmed up, I can't help myself.
I may have a problem

You can switch the tune off and check it then,have you got hilly motorways there.

NotSooFast · 02-18-2020, 09:37 PM

My numbers are from iDrive:

City is 17.1 mpg (US)
Hwy is a mixed bag.. certain days I get 26 while others I get 29. Never crossed 30 mpg (US). Different factors come into play here.

Only run on 93 octane. Got 2 car seats on the back seats, few Amazon unreturned packages and a mobile car detailing kit in the trunk from chemical guys.

Hope this helps.

MFM5 · 02-18-2020, 09:42 PM

It wont be using the tune at 1700rpm as its pretty much not on boost so no difference, the M4 is flat!

Must be the redex,it says on the bottle, that's why I use it.Reduces emissions,increases mileage range and protects your fuel system, not just cleans it. Mind you that's on my own with an empty boot!

My -14 competition 575, sits at 12,3l/100km or 19mpg for mixed driving.
That is mostly “country” roads at 60-90kph (35-55mph) and suburban areas.

On longer drives I have seen 26+mpg.

Planning on a tune, have seen improved consumption from that in the past.

Ev_M_LuTioN · 02-27-2020, 08:55 PM

11.6 mpg smh! *
