Thanks for the link. If anything, I guess it means my suspicions are probably correct. This is my first BMW and I'm surprised if it's true they bake in a 5% overage... which effectively means the faster you go, the higher the delta. I don't remember anything like this with Mercedes, Jag or Audi.

Next question: Is there anything that can be done about it on a USA vehicle? How would I go about getting it "coded off"? The dealer was not helpful.
