On another point my tyre pressures are all over the place every time I look on the idrive they are different yesterday.
You would expect to see the pressures rise as you drive the car, and the temperature inside the tyre rises, and not necessarily uniformly.

It is possibly to code the car to display temperatures as well as pressures for all four tyres, although I haven't done that.
Indeed I just find it annoying especially when they are all different.

Too much info me thinks.

I got my best ever MPG yesterday 164 miles, 110 on the A1 and 25 odd miles either side on rural (ish) roads 46.8 OBC figure.

I just flowed with the traffic in comfort mode 70-80 on the A1.

Sounds more like it! How many miles has yours done now? I've got coming up to 3k on mine now and have only seen over 40mpg from one tank; the OBC says the running average is around 42.5 but my Excel spreadsheet says more like 39 and is I fear much closer to the truth.....

I'm on about 9000 miles the OBC will be optimistic and my average for those 9000 miles is 38.5mpg.

I do have a heavy right foot and do not normally drive for economy, I got 23mpg the other day going over the moors which does drag the average down.

Thinking (hoping!) that mine still has a bit of loosening-up to do and that the mpg will improve as it does. I don't really drive for economy either but equally I don't think I've got a particularly heavy right foot; realistically I never expected to get the combined figure of 50mpg out of the 335d but I was expecting it to be no more than 15% down and the current average is a fair bit worse than that. Guess I'll just have to see how things develop over the next few thousand miles!
