What do you have your MaxiDot set to?

No Waiting · 15-08-2008, 08:10

Just wondering which option(s) are the most popular...

skomaz · 15-08-2008, 10:24

Distance to refuel - but I often switch to avergae fuel consumption

Zut · 15-08-2008, 11:09

Most time on Instant Fuel Consumtion, seldom change. If so, then to Distance to Refuel

smstext · 15-08-2008, 11:24

it depends, if im trying to save fuel i keep it on instant, normally its on average for that journey and if its getting low ill switch it over to miles left. i dont use the radio/cd/track one its a waste considering you only got to look down abit. pity there wasnt away of changing what was on the display as i would quite like to have 3 lines of instant, average mpg and miles left.

Woops - sorry... As I don't have SatNav installed I forgot about that option. If only I could edit the Poll and add another option...

From MFD²DVD on and with the RNS the compass is left to the clock above the upper line.
Thats why I always look at the instant fuelconsumption

smstext · 15-08-2008, 22:29

is there a way of adding more features to the maxidot or making it show more info on the display?

inexeng · 16-08-2008, 10:55

I leave mine on the set up page all the time

thats the same for me too. the current octy im using has the maxidot, but before i had that i still used to normal display in exactly the same way

smstext · 16-08-2008, 14:31

i would prefer mpl to mpg if that could be added to the maxidot display.

vRSLen · 16-08-2008, 14:39

Another vote for average fuel, not that I am bothered, but do like to see what it
can do from time to time

Jonno VRs · 16-08-2008, 15:00

Average fuel consumption usually by default

surfdude · 16-08-2008, 15:05

Normally Average mpg, but occasionally Instant if i find the mpg dropping, to see where I'm being unnecessarily heavy with my right foot, and occasionally miles-to-empty if the fuel's running low.

mdk1 · 18-08-2008, 13:31

Avg. fuel here on both cars.
