Post your worst....

....miles on a tank of gas. Estimating mine to be around 225 mi.
This time could be worse though, I just got the cai and I've been testing it out.

hehe. you could just run your tank close to E then fill up and when you get back in the car reset your trip meter and when you need to fill up again check how many miles you went.

Dood, when you fill up next time reset your trip meter. BTW, I use trip #2 to tell interval between oil changes. No ugly ass sticker on the windshield for me.

Worst I've seen is about 17.5 mpg. That's using SS, and flogging the hell outta her (i.e. - very spirited driving mode.) Not bad, if I do say so myself.

190 miles with ~15 gallons of gas (~13mpg)

It was the second week I had the car, I had just broken her in and I was having fun with the Sport Shift.

Worst tank was about 260, worst MPG was around 22.5

I don't understand what's so difficult to figure out either.... when you fill up your tank, reset your trip A or B to 0. When you go to get gas again, look at trip A or B (whichever you reset) and see how many miles are on it. If there's 220, then you went 220 miles on one tank.

mattg - how can you use it for oil changes? The trip A and B only go up to 999.9 miles. Do you just keep an eye on how many times it rolls over??
