round town my 530i (new N52 engine) is averaging 29.1 MPG and that is with the A/C on auto all the time. On Motorway runs its more like 34 MPG. so i am well pleased with the new 3.0i engine and am hoping mpg will only get better as it gets more miles under its belt.

this is a BIG improvement over my previous 2003 3.0i petrol model which ran the previous non-valvetronic engine.
