Hi, Guys!

First post on Bimmerforums! :cool

I have a question regarding my 2006 325i E90 with Automatic transmission.
I've changed my e46 to e90 and it has been 3 week since and only recently i discovered that the car is consuming way more gas that it should. It literally took me a bit over a week to check the average consumption which is around 19l/100 km (!) I feel like it's consuming gas like 4.0 liter car. I took some time to research this online and it looks like this car should consume around 12.5l/100 km which sounds reasonable. I called the seller and he said the same thing.
A friend of mine took a look with a computer and it showed no problems except for a bad battery, but the engine from the computer point of stand was all good.
So the question is: what would be the first thing that i should take a look at?
I'm getting my car into the dealer shop sometime next week, just wanted to see what i should prepare for.
BTW, the car is from 2006,but has only driven 60k km, so it's i would surprised that some problems have even started to come up.

thanks in advance!

Currently I have the same issue but mine is probably related to more mechanical issue. 335 does not have any accelleration and I was only able to get 185 miles out of a full tank.
