The engine needs to get to about 90 degrees to generate DPF burns. I have a 325d and get on average 45 mpg. When I bought it it was showing 29mpg.

The engine was only running at about 70 degrees.

I did notice the mpg was running a little low so I will go into the hidden menu tomorrow to have a look cheers Jon
