For those in the know, should I expect to get better fuel consumption as the K's on the clock increase?
Dont see anyone saying you get better fuel consumption with a petrol x5!In the experience of a group of X5 Diesel owners here in Portugal,we are getting between 28 and 24Mpg(10-11.75 ltr/100)(maybe 30Mpg(9.3 ltr/100 wimp driving!).Some of us with "soft"reprogrammed ECUs are getting 27-22Mpg!
All Of the X5 group with 3.0i get 21-23Mpg(12.2-13.4 ltr/100).4.4 and 4.6 here are always complaining they are getting below 20 Mpg(14 ltr/100)!!
An exception to this is a posting from a member here that managed to get +24Mpg on his DInan 4.4.,which I too find hard to believe!!
