Yes, I would say that is on the low side, but I guess it depends on how you drive and driving conditions. I can get over 400miles per tank if I drive like a normal person in mix type driving, but I usually get about around 350 with a spirited foot. If you are a driver that is either-on-the-gas-or-on-the-break then around 300 is probably right, maybe a little low.

I also live in CA. My trip computer says I can get 410 miles after I fill it up. Some mornings, it says I'm getting 32.0 mpg. But realistically I usually get 320-340 miles per tank.

300 miles per tank is bad milage for alot of freeway driving. you must floor it alot. this is a long shot but maybe check your tire pressure. then again, you may be filling up with a bunch of gallons still left in the tank. when the gauge is close to red, you still have quite a bit of gas left.

take your milage trip counter reading before filling up and divide it by the gallons you fill up with.

Default trip computer not accurate for mpg

We are getting around 340 miles per tank. It is worth noting the trip computer is typically not accurate +2 mpg. Other "lesser" cars owned were within tenths of measured readings. Another point on fuel. When adding fuel, when the pump shuts off, it is full within ounces, otherwise spillage.

I get around 390 to 405 as per the comp. But with my driving habits I would say 340-350ish tops. In Cali also.

I am getting right at 300 per tank too. I upgraded my wheels to the S5 wheels and ever since I saw loss in about 30 miles per tank. I even tried doing a cai to help and it made it worse.
