Storing/Display previous fuel consumption data

[rzkman]

Hi all,

I was under the impression that every time I open the fuel lid, the current average consumption gets added to history and the average gets reset. At the moment whenever I fill up, the average gets reset, but the previous 1st, 2nd, 3rd information remains blank. I've filled up about 4-5 times now and it is not keeping track. Did I miss a step? How come it doesn't store previous fuel consumption averages?

Thanks

Ray

I'm pretty sure the "5 last" display only updates when you manually reset the average fuel consumption screen.

Average since refuel updates when you open the fuel cap.

I am not 100% sure the average after refill is triggered by the fuel cap.

I think it is triggered by fuel sensor detecting an increase.

Tell you why I think that. Because there were couple of times I refilled to the top when the tank was 90% full (well you had to do that when you saw cheap fuel.... ), the "average after refill" did not reset.

So I think when the ECU sense a significant increase in level and triggered the reset... <_<

so is it confirmed you need to manually reset in the dash each time you fill up in order for the FUEL HISTORY to show??

I also have filled 4-5 times now, and the screen history is also blank

I should read the manual i guess but its probably at the bottom of a very full glove box!

Hi dissin,

You need to reset from the steering wheel after refueling to update fuel economy history.
