You mean with the ignition off? why would you want that? having something lit while your out of the car would just drain the battery?

Thanks for replying. The mileage only shows up when the car is stopped? While im driving there is just a picture of a dial. This only appeared in the last few days

Not quite sure what is going on there, the mileage and trip meter should be permanently displayed when car is running or ignition on. As mentioned, all dashboard displays go off with ignition as it would drain the battery.

Switch off the cruise control by flicking the switch on the top of the left stalk to the right and as if by magic your odometer display will reappear....

We could have had some fun and said it was an indication to advise the car had been clocked but that would have been cruel
