320d fuel consumption

hi
just want to check with all the diesel dudes. i'm getting 8.2l/100km on the OBC in my 320d (2004) automatic. seems a bit high for my liking. i guess 50/50 traffic and freeway driving. what do you all get??????????

My X3 20d xdrive runs between 6-7 l /100km on the obd. Depending on how I drive

that sounds like what i should be getting. that means about 16% difference between what i'm getting and what i should be getting. what areas should i look at? (btw, i drive very gently.)

I am currently getting 8l per 100kms, I used to get around 9 with a heavy foot.
I drive a 2005 E90 320D

Everything still standard on the car? I know on high km the catalytic converter can make a big diffidence if not removed or replaced.

My E46 320d manual is currently running at 7.2lt / 100kms with about 50/50 town and freeway driving and I dont exactly drive miss daisy.

8.2 seems high but auto can make a big difference.

I would kill the cats first and see if it makes a difference.

Thanks guys for your responses. Maybe de-cat will help, but wont that bring an egine error?

My 2011 320d gets me between 6 and 6,5 l/100kms mixed driving.

I was getting 8-9 litres/100km when I was doing 100% urban.
Cheers.
