Hi Cyee,

I agree with everyone else here:

1. Zero the trip meter as well as the consumption meter, they are two separate things. If you have not zeroed the consumption it will give your overall figure from new
2. Better still, work out your consumption manually to check accuracy
3. Wait a few more 1000 km for the engine to settle down.
4. If the consumption is still excessive, take it back to BMW to have it looked at.

PS: Where do you live? What altitude are you at and are there many hills on your route?
