max i got in was 63l
I got 59 litres back in mate when the tank was completely empty.
ie i had broken down
Fuel pumps need to be calibrated regularly to make sure the fuel company is not ripping off the customer! 1 litre needs to equal 1 litre.
It would hazard a guess in your case, that 1 litre dialling up on the petrol pump probably actually only put in around 0.95litres into the fuel tank!
It does happen especially when the pumps dont get calibrated often!
You've probably been ripped off a couple of euros
I filled mine up past the click/shut off aswell until a little bit of fuel poured down the side so it was definitely completely full and it was definitely completely empty as i had broken down
thats a stuffer!
Just read the manual to find out but couldn't see it.
I read some mad stuff about the computer, i didn't know about some of the stuff
Like you have 2 computers, 1 is started when you start the car and continues if you get back in within 2 hours, after 2 hrs it resets itself
The other is a total driving computer, so doesnt reset itself when you get in the car in the morning for work. it only resets when you get to certain mileage or driving time (100 driving hours or 10,000 KM)
temperature gauge doesn't read temp properly until the engine has been running for 5 mins
elec mirrors dont work for first 15 seconds
fuel calclation is based on consumption during last 50Km
objects may approach quicker than expected when u get a revo trial
.... ok that bit wasn't in the manual

If that were correct, how would it calculate it during the first few hundred yards? Plus my journey to work is less than that and it manages to calculate it fine?
If you do it properly, you blip the throttle with clutch up. Accellerator does work with brake pedal pressed.but ur foot is on the clutch when u heel and toe, so thats prob why it works!
How do you change the climate control display?
HOW DARE YOU CHALLENGE THE MANUAL!
i didn't explain too well
page 2.10
FUEL (stuff left in tank)
Fuel calc is based on the average fuel consumption during the last 50KM
After resetting the fuel display the REAL fuel range will be displayed after approx 50 KM
...basically its useless to me unless i'm doing a long motorway drive at steady speeds
it uses your previous 50km journeys to calc it
If you drive like a c0ck for 50km, and it says you got 5 miles left in tank, then you slow down and start driving normal then you probably got loads more that 5 miles left in tank
if however you were driving sensible then you probably have got 5 miles left
Sorry, this is my mistake, when you said fuel calculator I thought you were referring to the calculator that works out your MPG! That's what I would have called the fuel calculator, so my mistake
if you own an LCR you'll be your local petrol stations best friend if you drive like you stole it
Cheers - just read link - is all I can do change degrees celcius to farenheit, and access values?
