Gas consumption in HK/throttle tip-in

hli451 · 10-31-2011, 02:39 AM

What sorts of gas consumption is everyone getting on their F10 in HK? I have a 528 with about 3000k now, and my average consumption so far is 15.5L/100 km, which seems waaaay higher than the amounts BMW stated. Also, I generally don't drive fast -- am I doing something wrong?

Also, has there been a fix to the throttle-tip in issue? I only have that issue in Sport mode, and I only experience it when accelerating after slowing down the car substantially (but without fully stopping). It basically renders the Sport mode unusable for me.

Mine's about 14L/100 km and I have 6000 Km on already.

Mine is 16L or 17L/100km. I mostly drive on weekends with short city trips. Going up and door hill all the time. Pretty bad.

For my commute! I am at 5645Km now!

Jacky328 · 11-02-2011, 05:41 AM

My is 11.7L/100, never reset gauge, now is 20200k, average 18k/h.
As said, unlike some Jap's car the actual consumption far more than indicated, my figure is accurate matched to my our gas bill.

You have really good milage Jacky. But then you always drive long trips.

ICIC · 11-04-2011, 03:59 AM

Mine is around 15.5L/100km (7500km now). 50% city and highway, respectively.

Mine is 13.5L City. 6500KM now
Haha!
May be due to the oem 17" wheel .

koby · 11-11-2011, 07:35 AM

Hmm. Wondering how accurate that consumption data on the computer is. But in real life figures, per full tank of gas (til the fuel warning light comes on) I get just under 400kms.

Up and down the hills of hk every time I go out, and I drive fairly briskly in standard mode. Once a week I may put it in sport mode and kick it.

Does that sound about correct? How does it compare with the rest of you guys?
