I parked up last night and on the screen it said i had 80 miles left to empty! When i came to turn it on this morning it said 55 miles to empty!
On a 10 mile trip to work it went up to 60.
Do i have a problem here as i dont see where the 25 miles went when the car was sat still all night!
Does anyone else have this problem

its just normal really to be honest :D

should see my car, sometimes between going on a smooth jounrey home etc i can see the fuel range go from say 200 miles to 250 miles.

then i start it up in the morning and just pull out of the drive and it says 200 miles again :(

best way to judge how much fuel is left is once on a journey check your range
 
Ok so now after i have got home it says 55 miles left. Is that really how much is left! Cos wen i put petrol in it said 100 miles and i have done 30 miles averagin 31 mpg.
 
its just your car estimating the range.

dont forget that it all depends on your drving style/where you drive etc.

i went down the motorway the other day and when i set of from home it said that i had less range left then when i actually arrived there 30 miles later (y)

but when i get stuck in stop start traffic, or am really pushing my car it drops a lot faster.

how much did you put in your car. you must be a bit stingy for it to only say 100 miles to empty :D
 
lol it had 50 miles left and i put 6 quid in! I had no cash with me and i dont like paying for stuff with my card and cudnt be arsed drawing ne out lol! I get paid tomorrow so will be filling her right up
 
the distance travelled on the amount that you put in sounds about right for an mpg.

obviously i own a jtd so it would be a little bit different, my range would be a little bit more.

its nothing to worry about (y)
 
Ok cheers pal, I knew there would be nothing to worry about lol
