Hi all sifu sifu .... Please advise is that recon 2007 pre Lci 525 (3.0) UK spec. I just taken for 1st day.
The fuel consumption is Ard 18 - 25 L/ 100km.
Why so high ... All your is how much roughly.tqqqqq
 
Mine is 523i UK spec 07 LCI, my FC even worst . 17.7/ 100KM. This is my first tank after took the car few days ago. With Shell RON95
 
Amos.
Now. My car goes to a bit normal .10.2 / 100 km.
I found the engine oil will change it lower liter if use fully synthetic . I using lucas oil which made in usa for porcshe car use.
I change it today. My 1st opal servicing.
U may try Castro edge or renovol also. I think will better
from she'll or Petronas engine oil.
Any i try to use the electronic pedal on left behind the steering to fix the speed on long journey. It will also change the digit lower..
If use the leg to control ... is quite difficult to get lower digit. ....are you using semi engine oil at the moment?
After few thousand mileage ... I think your digit will b lower soon. Now may b still new and not so smooth to the engine ....
 
Or u may make a try to Petronas 95 extra...sone car will get better digit.
i tried she'll n Petronas .
P is work better to my car ..
 
When I got the my car. The SA already did the service for me. Should be Shell engine oil. Cos my 1st tank less highway drive, so can see FC high. I did tried Shell, Petron & Petronas. So far both P estimate fuel also higher than S a lot. Full tank the estimate fuel is around 530-550km. Now my FC is around 13L/100.

Try Caltex tech... so far for my xthree it's 13.5 - 13.9 /100km ( Ron 97 ) . Bfore 14.5 and above when using shell or petron .
 
Yup... I will try use caltex to do some cleaning for the fuel injection .
later see any effect or not.
If in city drive. Mine normally get the digit from 10-12l /100km. Because of jam. Speed . Press and depress the pedal. All this make a higher digit.
When I use on Highway may get 7 - 8 l /100km. By Keep the speed and press slowly.
 
Wow, ur highway drive still can get 7-8L/100km. Last night came back from JB to KL. Average get 9L/100KM with min 140km/h speed
