Hey guys, how many kms do you get from a full tank?

Saw something on car sales and it said:
* fuel average distance - 663
* fuel max distance - 900
* fuel min distance - 457

Currently I'm averaging 400 km per tank and that's without the spirited driving! !

[naynay]

i get about 450 general driving with jb4 on map 5

[recce]

i get around 450 as well with JB4 on map 5

[Digitalism]

Fuel type would be a contributing factor. Ethanol or normal pump fuel.

[cartaa100]

Howcome everyone is running Map 5?

Im running Map 2, average is around 12.8L

[DR-JEKL]

By memory im in the low 11's and that's giving it a blap at least once or twice a day (when i do drive it!)

[lemonpark]

JB4 on map2, 12.4 avg, fill up last night but didn't check the range at full tank. Checked it just then when I went for a drive (sitting just under a full tank now) and it said 450 something.

Pretty decent I guess, in my IS250 i was averaging about 10.6l/100km

checked it again today, 350km with about 3/4 tank left. avg iis 12.4l/100km. good enough for me.

car's only had BP Ultimate since I've owned it

[djpro1]

13L/100 Map 1. (fresh spark plugs)

I think it has to do with my mileage @ 93k kms..

Probably need a carbon intake clean.

[mspec]

just filled up. Didn't check the KM, I don't let it go under 1/4 tank but it was reading avg of 10.8/100
98 octane

[waterbottle1]

I was curious so i did few comparisons before


1 tank of slow granny driving = 500-550

1 tank of heavy foot drives = 350 ISH

1 tank of little bit of combination chow mien = 400-450

all JB4 MAP5 on 98 BP

12.4l

[7smurfs]

Not 335i but n54 135i

I'm stuck on 12.6/100 on 98 RON BP ultimate

[MJ80.]

11.9 here, gets a squirt at least once or twice a day.

[Testercles]

I get around 12L/100km. I'm at 130k km and I don't hammer it very often. Bone stock running 98 octane.

[naynay]

i run map 5 bcos moar boost. got FBO including intercooler

[Brule]

I can get around 550 km around town with FBO RB's and PTF tune on bp ultimate. But if I get into it, it goes down 400km-450km/tank

[Scotty89]

I fill with Shell 98, and get around 650 - 700 km per tank, so averages about 9 - 9.5L per 100km.

Mine is standard, with 19 inch wheels. No JB4, No Mods.

Edit: Steptronic auto in D as well, maybe DS once or twice a day. I don't drive hard at present.
Edit2: Sorry, forgot to add my commute is all highway, about 30 - 40km all on cruise control.

[Littlejvass]

I average 13.5L on a stock car, having quite a heavy foot plus i barely drive the car in D (it`s either DS or M) on both Shell and BP 98.

Will probably have to change sparks soon...

jb4 map 5 - get about 400 kms.

^This will make the biggest difference on what kind of fuel usage you are getting.

Mine is currently sitting on 9.9L/100km with an average speed of 52km/h, which means I get over 600km per tank.

I do close to 100km each day going to & from work which is mostly only freeway & 70-80km/h highways & since I work night shifts there's very little stop start traffic.

Car is stock with close to 90,000km, ran it mainly on 98 octane (which ever brand happens to be the cheapest at the time).

If i drive it quietly it will see 400-450 from a full tank using BP 98 But give it a hard time and its 250-300.
Sorry but you have to pay to play in a TURBO car.

[naynay]

i fill up according to my need. during the week its about $20-30 cause i ride my bike to work and rarely would drive the beast, but on weekends if im going on long cruises or have a lot of errands to run then it would see $50. If its shit raining all week then it would be a full tank. Makes my life easier cause i don't have to worry about how many cents to the liter. as Peter said, you gotta pay to play =P

Yep, heavily dependent on how often are you are on boost/WOT and your tune i.e. AFR/running rich

My old s15 would have me running 330-350km for a full tank (65L).
Doing 300km a week, this basically meant filling up a full tank!

So you can imagine my joy petrol-wise when I jumped into the 135i and managed close to 450-500km average on a smaller 53L tank
I now fill up half a tank of fuel weekly!
