Question to you 530dA LCI owners - what is your gas mileage like, particularly in the city with average speeds of 20-25 mph (according to the bordcomputer)?
tnx

My Ride: 07 E61 530d M-Sport.
I do alot of short journeys in mine, 5-10 miles with some stop and starts at the lights. My car returns 28-30mpg in those conditions although it only has 4500miles on it so that may well improve as it loosens up. On a 200 mile run the other week at an average of about 80(90-100 on the motorways) mph it returned 39mpg. I have found that the dis under reads on the car by a fair bit. Also the deisel engine only really gets really economical after 5 miles from cold.
