Default Computer / Mileage staying on

Hiya,

Yet another thread by me, maybe I should of made a "new octavia bits and pieces"!

I've just been out for a drive and after locking up I can still see the time and mileage being displayed on the dash.

I'm sure it turns itself off but just been back out to have a look and it's still on.

Is it meant to stay on?!

Really?!!!!

I must be going mental then, I'm sure it turned off last time I looked.

Think i'm just being paranoid because it's such an upgrade from my last car and I want everything right on it.

Thanks guys.

It should stay on for a short while then time out.

I'm sure it turned off when I first got it, but now it's def staying on!

Still trying to work out how many miles I'm getting from £20, looks to be around 150 and that is booting it here and there. Seems pretty damn good really!

Going to keep putting in 97+ ron I think.
