Default Getting 400+ Mile Range on the V8 S5

Got a 420 Mile range on the V8 (see pic below). Drove about 20 miles and still got 400 miles to go on the computer reading. Since I drive like crazy on dynamic mode, actual is closer to 370-380 miles to a full tank. However, the range is getting better. I use to get only 350 Mile Range when I put a full tank.

Make sure you check it against the odometer. Mine routinely reads 350-370 miles, however that always ends up around 290-300 miles on a tank.

324 is my best on one tank but I was moving at a solid clip on the highway. I've averaged 16.2MPG over the last four+ years so I obviously don't baby the car!
