[QUOTE="wuzzles, post: 629431, member: 2736"] I might be wrong.... but u can try this. When you reset the monitor, try doing in when you are [U]not[/U] sitting standstill or if you are going to be flooring the car right after the traffic light. Just my observation.... because the consumption meter is based on a constant "average" calculation. If I reset it while i am just cruising and my consumption meter is hardly pass 10L/100km for a while, I find the figures continue to be much lower compared to if i am bored at the traffic light, reset consumption and then floor it when the light goes green. It takes a very VERY long time to get the average down if it started of at 40L/100km and then slowly dropping down. Just my observation [/QUOTE]
