I agree, I have never heard of someone needing it done anywhere close to 12k miles (per the computer). Most seem to be at least double (many more) and double puts it at 36 mpg (24,000 miles/ 660 gallons = 36 mpg)? For the poster above, where did you get the 660 gallons?

The inspection requirements (660gal) has been around since the E46M3 days. The actual value is in liters and is located in the General Module. If you use NCSExpert, look at the coding located in the module, you will see it.
You are also confusing MPG with fuel flow and you are also assuming the sensor is absolutely accurate. |

So the computer thinks the engine burned 660 gallons of fuel and when it does it will tell you to adjust the valves. Reality is this probably won't happen until 25k-30k miles and the computer isn't even close to being correct about the 660 gallons burned? Maybe I am missing something? From Turner - Quote:

Most owners (non-track rats) usually have the inspection one (1) anywhere from 25 to 34K.
While i do not know for sure, i would be willing to bet there is some other algorithms that factor in to this calculation. |

My inspection interval goes to zero after about 24k odometer miles.
The interval ticks down about 3 miles for every 2 on the odometer. The computer claims I'm getting 18.5 mpg.
