Pisendar - May ask I ask how you get your 18mpg figure?

The reason I am asking is I am getting 15.2 mpg on my 2006 X5 4.8is with 40,000 miles. Neither I smash the gas pedal nor any hard acceleration. Most of the driving is at 65 mph if I do more street driving it drops to low 14 mpg very quickly.

I constantly get around 320 miles and it takes about 21gallons to fill it all the way back up. (320 miles / 21gallons = 15.2mpg)

Thanks,

Kevin
