19-20 in city and 24-25 in highway per the computer average reading, but the computer also says I have a ~500 mile range when full and with a 15.8 gallon tank that equates to 31 miles per gallon. I can't explain the discrepancy, does anyone else get this?

Don't drive hard, mostly in comfort mode

I think the BMS stage 1 hurt my MPG averages
I have a '14 328xi msport wagon. My commute is only two miles on back streets.. which I know is really rough on the car. Kills me, but I have to drop the kids at school and it's too darn cold to walk. Anyway I'm getting a paltry 14mpg! That's in comfort and taking it easy. I do get to open up on weekdays, but doesn't seem to get great mileage then either.

Replaced my HPFP recently, which was failing, but that hasn't helped. Car seems to be running fine and no CEL or stored codes. Checked the plugs and it doesn't appear to be running too rich. Air filter is brand new K&N.

What gives?! Any ideas?
Need to clean the valves? Need new plugs?
