Fuel consumption for E46 320

[waichon]

Mine is 19 inch rim 4cylinder 318..can drive 500km full tank..how to check leaking,very simple..just pour some water on the top right side engine,when u hear the sucking sound means got air leaking.
I change mine at mpower,now more powerful and fuel saving more.

Bro you can use Ron 95 too for your e46, about the full tank city drive + highway drive is about that millage you can go. You can get 600km with full tank if you drive all the way on highway.

no secret bro. can reach 600+km on highway drive. daily drive usually around 540km full tank. but this is what I do to reduce my FC:
1. keep your car as light as possible, dont bring unnecessary thing. as for me, I only bring spare tire, jack, toolbox and jumper in my boot.
2. I only switch on my A/C during sunny and rainy day. will switch off in the morning and night time.
3. don't floor the pedal and kickdown too often. when I gain the speed I need (80 km/h), I will keep the analog FC meter at 12km/l. (never exceed 100km/h after got 3 speedtrap summone )
4. use fuel additive. I use liqui moly octane plus, never dissapoint me. plus it's improve the acceleration.

maybe other forumer can share their tips to improve their FC.

my m54b22 can go only 430km combine city,highway,spirited,reggae driving. its normal right? cons. meter 12.4l/100km or 8km/l.

 

[Alex5522]

Full tank for City + Highway drive - 430km = Normal
For long distance Highway drive should get +- 700km on my old junk engine M52

 

[eujinee]

at least cant go more thn 400km for city driving....

mine m43b19 from ipoh to gelang patan 540km still got another quarter for work in tanjung pelepas for 2 days..add up 660km
