    you need to calculate your mpg yourself.

    fill up. reset your trip odometer and drive around for a week. then, fill up again. take the miles driven and divide it by the gallons required to fill up.

    dont bother posting anything about your sucky mpg until you do this. you cant really trust your obc.
    I did calculate it...came out to nearly the same number as my OBC reading.. (12mpg)

    awful bloody awful MPG

    As title says..OBC says i'm getting 11mpg city and while the OBC is sometimes off, it sure seems true.
    I have an 88 325is...every gasket from the exhaust manifold gasket up is brand new (since i blew my headgasket 2 weeks ago). My temperature level reads on the 1/4th mark between the blue and the middle..I don't drive like a grandma, but im never WOT driving city...I always put it in the right gear...not sure what else.
    It's just dreaded, I dread driving my car simply because of this.
