28.1 mpg 283miles to petrol station press reset travel 10 miles come up 24.1 mpg 239miles to petrol station strange

surely because you have driven it over those 10 miles the fuel economy has gone down and is reflected in the new reading?

 

[littleone]

So how many miles do l have to drive before the correct reading appear

 

[disco]

The trip computers are mental.

I reset mine after filling up

after my journy it read 19.7 miles traveled

19.4 miles scince last fill up.

I reset both the milage counter and the fuel counters at the same time.

I can only asume it takes a while to calculate the mpg and doesnt start the miles scince last fill up counter till then.

 

[littleone]

32mpg now any more

its an average... it is far from accurate.

I find my trip computer very accurate



Much better than that dodgy analogue reading
