We have a 2007 X3 3.0 si, 6 speed manual gearbox, approx 3000 km to date so not really broken in yet. On the highway at 100 km/hr average I have seen 10 litres/100 km on the OBC, (all of this in the first 1000 km), but now with mainly city driving it is sitting at 10.8 litres/100 km, running on 93 octane premium [(R+M)/2, or pump octane], at sea level. We have been gentle with it up to now, and it hasn't been heavily loaded yet. Still, a lot better than you are seeing.
