well, looking at your post, i can say that you are at littledean, and probably have an E53 BMW... I would even go further, and speculate, that you got a fuel-operated E53, and not some weird electric hybrid...

other than that, what was the purpose of this post? I think everyone on this forum, as well on the other automotive forums, have problems with their vehicles using up fuel... no free rides here... unless it is a hay... err... barley ride....


Now, all jokes aside -

if you are looking for any sensible answer and not a smart-ass smirks that I just provided, please provide more information:

year, mileage, trim, engine size of your car... this will put your 15 MPG in prospective with the other folks with similar rides...

your location and type of driving - if you are in US, UK or AUS, or Middle East... different fuels... different terrain... driving habits - if you drive like a granny... or racing one traffic light at a time...

oil... i would agree with some people - internal combustion engines require periodic oil change... you have had the car 4 months, obviously did not change oil and probably do not know when the oil was changed last time - how can you ask for a maintenance advise if you do not have a basic baseline?

this is a very friendly forum, and we (myself including) welcome you to the Xoutpost... However, most of us are adults, and as a result, we are used to grown up talk - ask a sensible question, get a sensible answer...

you may consider an automatic signature line, so you will not have to repeat yourself everytime about your ride...

again, welcome to the forum...
