[Poopensharten]

Trip computer reset and revved its tits off in first for 30 yards?

Wouldnt have to have went a drive to get it to do that tbh

 

[Skinny]

^^ Thats f**king mental WTF??

 

[Fletcher]

Have you got a 172/82 now then Alex.

 

[richy22]

^^ Thats f**king mental WTF??

Are you on about mine?!

Reset trip computer whilst in a 30 zone going down a hill barely touching the throttle whilst slowing from about 50... watch it climb!

Although I dont like Renaults optimism as it maxed out at 99.9! Booo wanted to see how far it went. The car was doing way more than that at the time!

 

[Skinny]

Ah, how that many miles on a tank though?

 

[richy22]

Ah, how that many miles on a tank though?

What usually or how high does it go??

I got it up to 1260

988 Miles to a tank


Though im disappointed renault underestimate fuel consumption... The MPG tops out at 99.9MPG

Just before this had 99.9MPG with 1260 miles to a tank... IF ONLY!!!!

 

[jesus]

Medal?

 

[Peperami]

If you sit in traffic long enough it should in theory go down to zero...

 

[dmn1989]

wow 20s quite high :O

 

[Brett]

Thats good going for a 1.4 Not sure how low I can get my 1.2 probly mid 20's if I reset it and then thrashed it.

 

[Leeshez]

Most out of my 182 was 41.9.

 

[DrR]

Will never go to 0 unless you reset it while not moving.

i strugle to get that out of my 1.2 lol

 

[Ali]

BENT! sub 20 is where it's at.

 

[CabinFever]

That's what my trip computer reads nearly everyday!

Fail. If youre sitting in traffic, it uses fuel to keep the engine working. If you slow down from 40 ie. in 2nd gear only pushing the brakes(optional), it will show 99,9mpg because the tires are keeping the engine running.

 

[Robno1]

if im lucky i get 24 but norm im at the 20 mark, funny thing is once im out of traffic giving it some, the mpg goes up, so im like SWEEEET nail it and make it go further hahaa :rasp:

 

[rev-time]

I got 23.4mpg going From Swansea to London and back, cost 80 round trip in petrol

double fail, the engine is still using fuel when it is being turned over, if you put the clutch down then you will see this figure as the ECU sees the engine as running hyper efficiently - using next to no fuel (idling) but traveling at, for example; 40mph.

0 MPG = "0 miles traveled per gallon of fuel used" (eg running the engine when at standstill), therefore Pep is right, in theory it will go to 0.

 

[mcphee197]

Us 197 owners have been doing this for a couple of years now and we don't have to try.


lol

No because its average mpg it shows not current mpg isnt it? So therefore you would have to reset it when stopped (and not move) for it to read 0.

 

[Bristow]

How do you reset the mpg in a cup? Mines always stuck on 32 and never moves! Even though i drive really economicaly!

Thanks
