Per the specs on the 545i the fuel tank capacity is 18.5 gallons with a reserve of 2.1 gallons. Pardon my ignorance but does this mean that the total fuel capacity is 20.6 gallons??

I have the BMW Service training manual for the E60 and it states that the total capacity including reserve is 70.0 Litres (18.48 US Gal).

it is 18.5 gallons. When you get down to that 2.1 gallon reserve, the indicator light will come on in the dash showing you're low on fuel.
