Title: Distance to empty gone weird
Post by: markos on September 20, 2015, 12:40:12 pm

After the last couple of fill ups the distance to empty has gone from about 365 to 310. Always fill to first click on the pump so should be consistent... Anyone had similar problems or know a cause?

I believe the range is worked out from your Avg Fuel consumption.  Looks like you have been using the loud pedal a little more  :happy2:

Ha, no not this time! Everything I've been doing is the same as normal. Did have it serviced a few weeks ago, but can't see why that would change anything
