Fuel consumption

[manesh.mathew]

guys i have a 2007 320i exclu. i get around 7-8 km/Lit in town driving . is this normal?. i bought the 4 months ago and did a long drive and it gave me around 13-14 kn/lit . so i am a bit confused . does run flats have an effect on fuel consumption?....

ur bm i feel is economical - longer the distance, less fuel u use in comparison

 

[Tumo]

Yes, that sounds about right

How long are your trips? remember, the car will overfuel heavily until it is up to temp for cats and some other reasons...

Are you sure its km/litres and not litres/100km?
