Assuming you're talking about the 2003 car as in your profile - it recalculates all the time. The reason it ends up not changing much is because it is an average. If you don't reset it, it becomes a long term average so it won't be affected by short term gains or losses in MPG.

I always left mpg2 alone and then reset mpg1 all the time to get a current reading.

Me too Dan (on my E38 which was the same software). On the RR I just leave them both as I don't care about MPG. I know it's going to be poo on the V8 petrol !

The manual is your window to enlightenment. But I'll throw you a bone for nowt - click on it and select reset.

Yeah, I do that. Tank by tank in my case but whatever works for you. The button marked "Reset" seems the clue. The older cars may be different? Graham
