The dash computer lists my average at about 23 mpg. It varies a little. If I mostly city drive for a few months it gets down closer to 20 but then I go on a roadtrip and the mileage shoots right up.

Cruise control all the way (city and highway) !
And in a 2014 Pickup truck I got around 18mpg (combined with a little more in the city) Last edited by jc_bmw; 04-10-2014 at 09:48 AM.. |

I average around 21-22 in mostly city driving. Still get 30-35 on long highway trips. Did 100 miles on about 3 gallons this weekend. the 330i's gearing and the 6mt help that a bit though. |

anywhere from 16 to 27 depending on how i feel like driving that day. I noticed the cruise control isn't always the best for mpg on road trips as when i go uphill the car downshifts to 4th and sits at about 3.5k rpm when i can easily get up myself in 5th or 6th.
i am also running a rich tune so im probably losing more fuel than normal |

Highway 26 mpg City 18-19 mpg Average is 21 mpg Unfortunately most of my driving is city in gears 1 - 4. If I get in 5th and 6th my mileage shoots upward. Last edited by mapleleaf1773; 05-27-2021 at 06:15 AM.. |

38 USmpg urban, 50 USmpg highway doing 70mph. The best I've achieved in winter with no AC on is 57mpg.
The manual transmission and diesel is a good combination |

I get 16 MPG in my current ride with 4 mile commute in my n54, fat tires and a heavy foot. With an N52 that's running correctly you should get much better than what you say. When I had a long commute and my old Z4 with an N52, I averaged 30-31 MPG. Bad days were 25s. |
