E60beemer, is that your Silver E60?

I like it, that looks wicked, respect to that, how do on earth do you get that type os milage in a car that looks like it would give you only 5 miles per gallion.


Nice Car......!!

That would never happen with a 530i (petrol)

on the subject of "excellent mpg" - guys, please see my summer's best achievement in my 520d....
If I count / convert (?) from kms correctly, the range I got is about 800 miles in my car.... (Although, I drove only about 780miles with full tank till almost empty... just to see this range for once ..
How about that?

2.0d is unbelievable : some year ago I drove an E46 320d for 5k km and it was incredible : 900 km with 60 litres on the highway . Driving fast .

Just bare in mind it will work after the 1st September 07, as i only put it up today, they need 24hrs for it to work.

As ever would like to hear the member comments on this
Thank you all
Hi E60 beemer, I notice you have had a remap, who done it and what is your impression, can I also ask that when cold do you get a very faint nano second vibration feel thru the steering wheel when pulling away from standing - I have a 530D 2007 and get it, I used to have a petrol530, maybe its just a deisel thing.
