[QUOTE="maxion89, post: 658659, member: 25003"] Well look like all e34 owner had the same problem. Mine also same, when start the engine in the morning the Petrol Indicator show at line 20 in our indicator. Our e34 indicator full tank will be 80 Liters right. Because there is a line show 20,40,60, and 80. So I always do some experiment how far the car can go for the Full Tank. So I test it by Refuel until Full that is RM 150 - 80 Liters. If you calculate by rate of fuel, RM 1.90 / Liters. RM 150 / 80 = RM 1.875 or RM 1.90. So I try to use the car to seehow far the car can go.Then I can reach until 400+KM For full tank. I dunno the right measure because I never let the car cant move anymore (fuel dry habis). So I try to refuel for RM 30 every time, so I know how far the car can go. if you divide RM 30 / RM 1.9/Liters = 15.7894 L or 15.8 L. So with this I can go for 100+KM. So every time I refuel I reset the KM indicator so I know how far I can go with only RM 30. There is red line on the Petrol Indicator, When the needle is on the red line, prepare to refuel again. Maybe if I got time I do some experiment by let the car fuel dry habis then refuel RM 30, then let it dry again and get the right measure. chears. [/QUOTE]
