Hi all

Noticed that last 2 times I've fill me tank it's not showing how many miles I actually get

I just put a full tank of 102 octane in my 2014 fiesta st 2 and it's read 266 miles till empty

I did 3 miles heading back from the station and the digital gauge still says 266

Any body had this problem b4 and had it solved?

Regards Scott

Its not a problem as such. the computer works out your average range based on your average MPG. If you dont reset it, or you have a nice high MPG and maintain it, then the car will update accordingly. If your granny driving, then you probably will see it increases the number, likewise, if you reset it and thrash it around, you will see you start dropping at a rate of knots.

I wouldnt worry, these things are only guestimates and will not affect the cars driveability. It just gives you more of a mental workout, to stop you falling asleep at the wheel :p lol

No worries, I am playing with my mondeo to see how many miles I can get for a tank, my first and only full tank did 574 miles, but I was rather heavy footed, this tank is on par for about 650 and the next tank will probably be granny driving to see what I can get!
