Average MPG Display

Post by Trickytree1984 »

Hi all,

Had my roc 2 days now. I cannot work out how to display the mpg and other travel info for the current trip I.e. since I reset the trip counter. I can only get instant or "since start". Is there a way to do this?

FYI I have read the manual from to back and I cannot find anything. I have colour mfd and multi function wheel

ive got 2 trips on mine, if you press the centre button on the right side steering wheel buttons you can change between trip 1 which resets itself and trip 2 which dosnt reset until you do it manually

I tried everything except the ok button! Left right up down. I must have been through the menus 100 times

I am guessing trip 1 is "since start" or does it reset on tank fill up (like my old civic did)?

Thanks
Rob

I think there's something like a 3 hour (or so) memory on trip mpg 1. What I mean by that is that if you do lots of small journeys with a start time within 2-3 hours of each other, then trip 1 continues as a cumulative of the total trips. It only resets when the engine has stopped for a few hours.
