Re below....

Engine: 30d/35d
Mode: EcoPro
Load: four passengers, lot of travel gear
Negative / Positive Factors: large cargo box on top. Net 5000 ft downhill

US MPG: 39.0
Imperial MPG: 46.8
L/100k: 6.0

It was 2/3 downhill

. Still, nuts!

I get about 12 mpg in the city; best mpg I had was 18.5 mpg on a recent 1K mile trip to Montreal. I have 555 hp so it's not bad

eqseric · 01-21-2015, 01:10 PM

Same consommation for me with my 3.0d with soft drive.

That is crazy efficient. I had the benefit of downhill. Yours is just speed, and "soft" as you have termed it.

I'd love to see 25d results.

ramsal · 01-22-2015, 11:31 AM

I'd be interested to hear what other F15 35i xDrive owners are getting in terms of winter mileage.
For me, with mostly highway driving (during rush hours = city driving)

Engine: 35i xDrive
Mode: Comfort/Sport
Load: 2 adults
Negative Factors: winter temperatures + winter tires

US MPG: 16.22 (I'm jealous of all you 35d owners!)
l/100k: 14.5

I don't have an overly heavy foot but I do like to feel the power of the vehicle once in a while when traffic permits (which is not as often as I'd like).

You gotta post a pic! Try a reset as a you enter a freeway, and send your best freeway MPG.

ahhh....seems i missed the whole point of this thread...ooops...k, I accept the new challenge...

mrboon · 01-22-2015, 12:00 PM

Best I ever got was on a 600km trip in one day (60% highway, 40% town/b-roads).

It was quite a hilly trip, lots of mountains!

I was taking it very easy, trying to see what mileage I could get.

I got a 40d

14.1 km/l
33.1 miles/gallon(US)
39.8 miles/gallon(UK)

Pretty pleased, but again, this was taking it easy. I had it on 70mph on cruise control most of the way.

I do think if it were flat, I would have gotten a bit more.

Trojanlaw · 01-22-2015, 11:28 PM

Because of people like you Matt, my car is currently in the shop. My 35d was not coming close to your figures. Turns out, I had a bad AF sensor since I drove the car from the factory. As a result my MPG has been about 6-7 MPG too low. Overall average after 2500 miles was only 22 overall, mostly local driving. Odd that I never got a CEL. Hope this is the fix. Will post my figures as soon as I get the car back.

Keep the thread going!

I read the first line of your post and my heart stopped.

Just so you know, wife gets 31-35 mpg in the highway. Our city/town driving is not reflective due to hills and 15 mph, windy streets. Still, town driving delivers about 21-23 mpg near our house, and about 25mpg elsewhere. I'll post some lousy results for our in-town routes when I get a really bad one.

Hoping yours is fixed, and look forward to your post!

Baunton · 01-23-2015, 03:36 AM

Here is my overall MPG is since delivery.

For the past week or so been doing short 5-10 miles trips around country roads AND as its winter had the Auxiliary Heating on which one would think reduce MPG. -5c today so >glad I have it!

I believe Imperial MP37.5 equates to 29.7 US?

Clarification Question: are we just looking at Best/Worst on a given journey or just looking at best on a motorway/highway?

Impressive results for overall. Just post anything you like. This is all entertainment anyway

You are over US 31 MPG!

This is a good site for MPG / imperial MPG / L/100 calculated all at once: http://www.markporthouse.net/rangie/...conversion.htm

Trojanlaw · 01-23-2015, 01:06 PM

Okay - Now I am not so sure they have found the issue for my low MPGs on the 35d. It was not the AF sensor that they are replacing. It is a fuel pressure sensor from a rail. We'll see if it makes a difference but I am skeptical that this is it. I sense I may have some issues coming up on this one. Stay tuned!

Baunton · 01-27-2015, 12:08 PM

Up to 38.2 MPG - Imperial (God Save The Queen)

Nice tune.

That is 7.4 l/100 for the continent and US 32 mpg. Very nice.

Wow. With a 35i no less.

You are at US 42.8 mpg
Imperial 51.4.

Tailwind? Were you being towed?

Best result yet.

wjbender · 02-02-2015, 04:08 PM

Here is my best MPG to date is 34.6 US. I have about 900 miles on the X35d at time I took the photo. All highway miles on my way home from Performance Delivery to New Jersey.

MattBianco · 02-02-2015, 04:30 PM

wjbender ramsal Baunton I think it is safe to say that with a careful foot, open road, EcoPro, and cruise control (except on downhills I tap the brake to let EcoPro coast the car), one can beat the stated US MPG of 31 with the 30d/35d. Would you agree?

mrboon beats it with a 40d!
