Fuel Consumption .. is this normal?

[cracksys]

i know, with great power comes shitty FC roud:but after some surfing here and there, i'd just like to ask if my fuel consumption is within normal range or something is not right somewhere in my carin pedal term, lets just say i'm in between heavy pedal-er and normal pedal-er

i have the same 325 E36 like u, but manual.

I would like to know the exact ans as well, since i m having this car not for long.

thanks guys.

sent for compression test on my engine. one cyl is firing figure below 100 and another one is 150-ish while others are fine with 21x figure.

possible remedy? or i have no other option than swapping/full overhaul

if it is, how much would it cost? was quoted RM4.5k for half cut and another RM1.5k for labor + others.
