My trip computer was reading an average of 61.3....great I thought, but upon filling it up, I worked it out to be an average of 55.6 - roughly 9% out.
Is this about right, I wasn't expecting it to be 100% right! But was hoping to be only 3-5% out.
I've got a 08 plate Ibiza FR TDI. I've now done nearly 7000 miles in mine. The one thing I’ve noticed is how inaccurate the trip computer’s MPG reading is. I've average about 46mpg over the 7000 miles. That is measuring all of the fuel I have put in the car. [Yes I know I am sad, I keep a log...
It's the first time i've had a car worthy of a road trip so we're going to get a ferry to calais and then go on a jaunt.
Any ideas for a route? Where to stop?
Random route so far:
Calais->
Ypres->
Lille->
Brugge->
Antwerp->
Eindhoven->
Cologne->
Heidelburg->
Nuremburg->
Munich->
Innsbruck->...
Just a couple of questions out of curiousity.
When the fuel warning light comes on, about how many litres/gallons are left in the tank of a 55 Leon FR TDi?
How does the trip calculate how many miles are left in the tank? Is it on the MPG of the last mile, last two miles, etc?
Just had my first motorway run after i got my car back from the stealers, my mpg has dropped from about 55 to 40? it was in for some handling issues and a vibration when breaking, the tracking has been adjusted, ive new discs on the front and the wheels have been moved around the car! Has anyone...

I disconnected the front display and now my trip doesn't work :confused:
It just displays exterior temperature, which is blank and always has been. But when I press the trip button, nothing happens.
Does it need a drive out to get all the info back?

Last week I put my car on a RR with a local garage and this is the graph I got.
Its a old dyno and the graph didn't show torque or revs, or bhp for that matter, only power in kw and speed, obviously I wasn't too pleased with the graph I got so today I went to engine advantages in Witham...

Has anyone had any problems with their trip computer not working? i bought the car with a MOMO steering wheel on it and i'm wondering if anyone who has fitted aftermarket steering wheels has had this problem?
I have had a look at the stalk but it seems fine. It's stuck on outside temp.
Word of warning!
Once your fuel gauge goes into the red - DO NOT take the milage left on the trip computer as being even slightly close, I conked out yesterday and it was telling me I had 20 miles left!! Oh how I wish there had have been, It died on a blind bend!! :censored:
