Some Friends With An 3.0 I Consume 16 Ltrs/100 Km, And As I Said I Am At 22 Ltrs/100km. Bmw Specs Says 14 Ltrs/100km, But There Is Always A Deviation. Lets See. Thanks For The Goods News, I Hope Soon To See A Reduction.

I'm not surprised they were surprised

Sounds like your driving that thing really hard for only having 600 Km on it. Take it easy. Remember: The higher the RPM the more gas it sucks. If your using the manual mode try shifting at 2500. Better yet, use regular Auto mode until the car is broken in.

Once your X3 is broken in you should see an improvement in fuel consumption, but not if you keep driving it the way you are.
