Re: E60 "Sports" Mode
Its so jammed packed from my house to office and back - my definition of city driving is that I never had a chance to rev above 1.8k rpm ..... every week day.

Re: E60 "Sports" Mode
My previous E39 520 can't achieve anything better than 7.3km/L on this island. On NSH, it is definitely 11km/L.
Take a drive to KL @ constant speed of 150km/h. If FC is around 11km/L, it is likely that ur route has too much traffic light.Boomerang;954338 said:

Re: E60 "Sports" Mode
davidtch you're right it was normal city driving with traffic lights. I guess I'm not used to a 3 litre engine, but if the 2.1 litre engine has that high fuel consumption too, I guess the 5 series cars are heavy? Curb weight is supposedly 1,535–1,735 kg

Re: E60 "Sports" Mode
If next traffic light is no more than 500m, juz let the car coast along without any throttle input. If kenna stomp, pls show us.
If it is a long stretch of clear road, accelerate fast so that it get to the 6th gear & coast at that speed.
Lastly, lift your foot off throttle as early as possible before the oncoming stop. Don't use neutral. It should be the highest gear possible.
My home to office is 5km & traffic on Geylang Rd is horrible. So, i cycle to work.Meek;954362 said:
