Great info! Was this straight highway driving?

/// M sa · 07-23-2014, 02:16 PM

Good lord did you drive under 2500 rpm the entire time? Lol

aus · 07-23-2014, 02:33 PM

Thats the computers extimated range, which is always VERY OPTIMISTIC.

dmk08 · 07-23-2014, 02:36 PM

Now go put your foot down as you should a few times and see what it says.

Why would the pictures get taken down? Are you nude in them?

60% highway 40%city... In our area though highway can become city

My last fill up yesterday was 26,1 MPG (verified, not on the board computer). I drove on the highway and on several mountains roads.

Regardless of verification (which I'll do

) I never saw my m5 with 20+ gallon tank over 414... for this to be that high with a 15 gallon tank is awesome

Wow - this is encouraging!

Any real world numbers for mostly city driving?

tdizzle · 07-23-2014, 02:52 PM

It always seems a bit optimistic after you fill up. Not sure what it's based off of, perhaps the mpg over the life of the car?

That's about the same as what I see when I fill up my 335.

I'd be more interested in what range you actually got and mpg/avg speed. Obviously you could probably hit that with mostly highway driving if you're gentle, but 80% city, you'd be lucky to hit 375.

At least 20 would be my guess with A/S stop on.

True and mine will probably go down once I get the alpha JB4 on for Terry to start logging this weekend.

Well now you're just making me jealous...

I await video of you doing 11.8 1/4 runs with just the tune.

tjxlee · 07-23-2014, 03:58 PM

the first few days of driving - 14.8mpg estimated by computer. Now that i've calmed down a bit, its up to 17.9mpg.

This is 80% highway. 17.9 was trying efficient mode for one day, but still going 80mph+.

14.8 is for 100% sport plus mode.

Andrew115 · 07-23-2014, 04:04 PM

Anyone who averages more that 25mpg in this car should have bought a beige lexus.

I'll bet you any amount of money this here m4 has hit the limiter more than yours

actually over it

tisme · 07-23-2014, 04:36 PM

Mine gets under 10mpg in the short period after starting up and in slow traffic, but on the open road restricted to about 60mph, I've seen 35mpg for short intervals. My average is 26mpg, but these are UK gallons

KASM3 · 07-23-2014, 05:45 PM

Does the low fuel level still come on at 1/4 tank?

Not to hijack the thread....what boost are you expecting from the JB4?
