EVLE30 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2007 (edited) hi guys, i was working on the car yesterday, and dicovered that the ECU is a motronic one... in my understanding i believed that the FL E30 ran the jetronic? my car (ever since i got it) barely gets 350km's out of a tank. could this have something to do with it? edit: for a moment there i had a brain fade... forget this thread!!!!

Tomo 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2007 my f/l 318i manual gets 450km+ a tank and my sisters f/l e30 auto gets around 350km as with yours. aside from the transmission difference i know the oxygen sensor is gone in hers, could be causing you to get worse economy also?
