Fuel Range meter

[528i]

My fuel range meter is fluctuating between 590-610km even through my full tank has used up to 130km. Anyone experience this problem? Or anywhere can reset the calculations?

The computer is actually constantly calculating ur fuel range based on the last 50km fuel consumption... so ur fuel range will fluctuates... for example, my ride usually gets 1080km to empty immediately after i fuel it up... then it drops to ard 800km (the fuel range) after only about 100km of city drive, and if i need to travel to the north on highway, the fuel range increases back to ard 850km and more sometime, of course it depends on how i drive the car... i drive within speed limit most of the time...

Second that.

Everytime I fuel up, mine shows 840-880km before refuelling
Like Willis has stated, it fluctuates based on how you drive.
It never really gets miles per miles like it is stated.
Mine average out high 500s or 600s before refuelling with trip saying 100km to go..

Mine usually shown 620-650 after a full tank fuel. But I can only make it 430-480km max on every fuel up. When the fuel warning light up then only I go to refuel... which left probably 70km to go. So, with my record, the car can never go beyond 600km per full tank and why still shown 620-650km after I fuel up? Not so smart thou and i found it not very useful... IMO.

My latest figures.
Same driving style/ 50/50
fuel reserve lights on, done 600km with 100 km indicated
After refuelling full tank. 940 km! haha...

My experience is not much diff of using RON 97 or 95. Power wise, when using 97 is better during overtaking.
