Saw this on Facebook... couldnt help but laugh a bit! Typical french barge!

Does it move when the ignition is switched off?

Try filling the car up, it might "reset" the float in the tank :)

I don't think the Ph1's have the trip computer button on the end of the wiper stalk do they?

ignition key off, and press and hold the end of the mpg button while you turn ignition key to on. soon as dials start moving let go of button and see what the crack is, not sure how it might help, might though :p
