First fill-up
My mileage from my first tank of gas was 24.83, calculated the old-fashion way. I believe the trip computer said 25.6
This mileage was from mixed driving. I normally got 23 on my Vigor. If memory serves me right it was rated at 19/27 for the 5MT.
In my experience with past Acura's (this is my 5th), mileage gets better as time goes by.

) fixes both the range and mpg error problem. I would caution not to take the car near empty, it could misfire and damage then engine.I have no experience on the non-navi TSX's trip computer.
