My issue was no stations within the default 15 miles, so you might have to open the radius out if no rows found on first query. There is actually one mom & pop station inside 15 miles but assume a data issue.

Clever.. BMW displays the price of the recommended fuel type for your car on the BMW Sat Nav when you have 50 miles range remaining, (their website says these are also updated every 30mins), so I just look for Shell/Tesco near my route. Good name though!
Spotted this morning that the price of fuel displayed on my nav at one particular zoom level - though I had nearly 200 miles' range remaining. Maybe because hybrid.

Ah okay, maybe that’s when it shows, I’d noted it didn’t show up all the time and guessed at the reason
ETA - I usually use CarPlay but have you tried BMW nav? It provides a better representation and more info on the HUD (which lane to be in, a red arrow moving from one lane to the correct one if you’re in the wrong one, junction design etc) and a live, dynamic AR on the driver’s panel with big floating turning arrows.. basically it’s better integrated and makes CarPlay look a bit amateurish (but then I’m a nerd that likes as much info as possible!

)
