: Anyone done fuel consumption comparisons on
: top up?
: top down not wind deflector?
: top down with wind deflector?

: longish trip.

Hi Chris,

when I first got my Z3 I was fairly keen with the record keeping .

I think top down cost me about 3 mpg, but weather made a bigger difference. My best out of one tank was just under 700 km, done non-stop during a cold crisp night.

I typically get about 600 km per tank, but my driving is mostly 1 hour runs up and down a freeway.

I've recently mostly-fogged my airbox, so should make the effort to see what change I get.

Cheers,
Andrew
