Feul wise normal shell unleaded
Hope it improves only done 900 miles at the moment
Re air con ive tried the 20 degree auto route and no difference
New gts
On a test drive in a brand new S I did 23 mpg driving on open roads at speed limits. Air con on full time should dehumidify the cabin so I would be investigating why there is so much internal moisture.

The mpg is similar to what I was getting from my turbo when new.
It partly right engine but probably that you’re travelling faster than you think.
Mines done 15k in a year and settled down to just over 20mpg, but I get 16-18 around town.
Part of the improvement is me paying attention to the speedo
I was always aware of the speed I was travelling at in my last 911, but the turbo is such a effortless performer that I am generally travelling faster than I think.
I now use cruise a lot, and have had as much as 28 from a tank on an 80mph cross continent drive

I agree on the auto 20 deg and sync - mine rarely steams up and if it does, it only takes a few seconds of the 'full blast' to clear. The 718, however, is a different story!

I'm usually on 21 and sync on auto but rarely turn on the ac in winter.
A common scenario is the evaporator stays cool and damp thus steaming up the windows next time you start.
A consequence can be shorter evaporator life as they don't like being damp all the time.
It used to be good to run the ac once a month to keep the seals lubricated though.
15 mpg implies you're driving correctly.

All BMW I have owned seemed to have this problem including my current one.. was hoping this was not going to be a problem with a Porsche brand. I never have found a cure. However in the winter months I clean the the inside of the windscreen, firstly with a mild detergent/ glass cleaner, and then dry , and then use just water to wash it again and dry with paper towels. Even though the screen still mists it clears very quickly. I find it irritating to sit in the car for 5 mins waiting for the screen to clear. I understand that is caused by hot air landing on a cold surface , which then turns into moisture.
