MPG

[Kondour]

13 city/ 18 highway... get about 200miles per tank and i mostly drive city stop and go.

Maybe it is stop and go, but maybe you ought to see if everything is running right, ala plugs, dirty injectors, etc.

Nah, engine is practically new so theres nothing that would cause excessive fuel usage other than a lead foot :)

heavy breathing '95 3liter, 3.73 rear end

Alex and I got exactly 25mpg heading up to DC to TechFest. In the city....just watch the needle sweep towards empty..

[george graves]

I always get almost exactly 300 miles per tank (OBC display broken)....

Don't know what I'll get with the m30 swap...... :?

Averages taken over several tanks not using OBC, OBC is always 1-2 mpg low.

I get 26.5 all the time.. today I rolled 330 on the trip before filling up and I only put 12.3 gallons in. So there is 26.8

how do some of you guys get such awful gas mileage.. I drive a 325ix 4 door automatic, probably the heaviest of all the E30s (except perhaps the ix touring), but I get the same or better mileage. even if I drive the shit out of my car, I might get 22mpg.. but 20? hell no!

I have a bavauto chip, SS exhaust and 19# injectors.. nearly everything else on my motor is stock (including the plug wires!).

I've been doing mostly hoighway driving on all 3 of the tanks of gas I've used and I've been getting 25-27 mpg with a huge hole in my muffler. It should go up after I replace that.

[KeithV]

'91 325i Dinan chip and 4.10 LSD 5spd

I get right under 20 mpg or so.. maybe less. I fill up about every 250-270 miles.

[Schnell 318]

I get 27-28mpg in the city and 35-36mpg on the freeway. M10.

pretty much the same heae, and i have a very heavy foot :twisted:

[Blaster.]

13 mpg on the city, and on the 405 and 101 freeways (those are like parking lots during rush hour). On smooth sailing highways with no rush hour, i get about 33 mpg =)

Weird, i'm getting about 20 mpg in my '91 318i ... I wonder ... QUESTION: Where can I get the vacuum hoses, I need a new set of them ... I think that's why I've got such bad gas mileage is because of cracked hoses resulting in a mild vacuum leak...

I am with George on this...I get about 300 miles on a tank. I often drive to Portland, futz around and drive back to Corvallis on the same tank, that is about 200 miles of freeway.
