Andylomas95 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Good afternoon all. I was wondering if any of you lot could tell me how to display the MPG on my new car. I have a ford fiesta style 1.2 3dr 2014 In the manual is says press the trip button on the left stork, which my car doesn't have!! Any help would be great! Thanks :) Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 your car might not have a trip computer, in which case you would need to change the instrument cluster and add the stalk yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Your trim level doesn't have the trip computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666Damian666 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Is the Style the entry level model ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Studio is the entry level. Studio and style don't have a trip computer as standard. Econetic does though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666Damian666 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 As sad as it sounds, i'm always flicking through the info on the left stick checking out the average MPG etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 your not the only one who does that, I sit with the computer flicking between MPG and miles to go :p If only there was a way to just make it skip itself :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt1981 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Damian, are you getting much over 40 yet, seeing as our cars are roughly the same age? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Sellotape? :D haha, I wish! you have to click then click again, cant just hold it lol I need to build a robot hand that just pokes up from the driver seat and just keeps flicking the button :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake90087 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 My 1.2 with less emissions tech will average 48 to a tank with a pretty decent amount of air con use. Sent from my iPhone 5 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my GT-I9100 using Ford OC mobile app Alright Matt, I am averaging between 41 to 41.3 MPG but that's only doing short 6.5 mile mixed driving journeys to work and back & random trips on either the evening or weekends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1981 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 About the same then. They should improve as time goes on. Its hard not to rev it though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666Damian666 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm looking at getting the Mountune chip so I'm not sure if that will help my MPG or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andylomas95 Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hi all, thankyou for replying! I've not yet figgered my mpg yet but I'm getting about 300mile on £55 which I thought was good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobsy Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I've been trying to be good and change at 2-2.5 rpm (when it tells me) but thats no fun! :P. Although i do cycle through the comp when stuck at lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I have the Mountune upgrade and don't drive sensibly (never below 2000 rpm) ;) and average 360 miles putting in £55 worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGee48 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I have the 2010 Econetic 1.6 Diesel a mix of city and motorway and the husbands lead foot I average about 58-62 MPG on it little 40lt tank I can get upwards of 250 miles on a half tank which roughly costs £20 - £25 I have to say I love my little economical Fiesta and best of all he is £0 road tax :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanch Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'm getting just under 40mpg, but I only have a 8 mile round trip to and from work now, used to have travel 15 before I changed work place! So I've given up on fuel economy and looking to upgrade my car, just deciding on what to get now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nath.mk7.st Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 This was my ST mpg after following the change up instructions for about 40miles just had one burst of power when someone overtook me then slowed right down so blew him away and went back to Eco mode lol Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
