Taking Kesas and MEX highways to and fro. The iDrive shows the fuel consumption between 9.3 to 9.6L/100kms. Question :1. Is that the "normal" rate for you guys who are driving 320i here?2. If not what is your usual consumption rate?3. What's your best consumption rate so far and using what brand/type of fuel? (I take it that it will be long distance and speed demon kind of driving)FYI I just filled her up last night with Primax95 at RM96.76 and the odometer shows 452 kms. That works out to be 20.7 cents per km. But if I go according to the on board computer's rate of 9.6L/100km, it works out to be 18.24 cents per km. (Yes, I reset the journey computer together with odometer whenever I fill up the car, old habit. My old 2.0L car was doing 16 to 17 cents per km for city driving and down to 14 cents/km for long distance but old car is 200kgs lighter)So which one is more accurate or the reality is some where in between?Appreciate your comments and feedback.</p></blockquote><p></p>
