| Re: MPG Computer Reading There are two figures shown. ( / ) 1 will reset to zero if the ignition is off for two hours (or you manually reset it yourself) ( / ) 2 doesn't automatically reset - I believe it will keep going for up to 9999 miles but I've never left it alone that long as I always use trip 2 to measure economy on a tank full

| Briskodian | Re: MPG Computer Reading Have to refute that my 2 has nevr changed and I have had the car 8 weeks now and it shows mileage total since I drove away from the garage. Or have I missed something as usual. |

Is that for a Fabia 2 or 3 because mines definately goes back to zero after switching off the ignition for more than 2 hours? 960 | |

That is the same for both, as you are using memory 1. If you press the bottom on the bottom of the right hand stalk it will change between memory 1 and 2.
