I've already searched Trip Meter and Trip A/B but I couldn't find a related thread... so sorry if repost... I TRIED!

Do your Trip A/Trip B have limits before they reset back to 0? My Trip A/B resets to 0 once it hits roughly 999? I can't get it to exceed 1000 unlike my other cars. TIA

hm...i wanna say that it DOES indeed have a limit; i'm not sure though - i remembering comparing my dad's car to mine and noticed that it went back to 0 then continued on versus my dad's car that just continued pasted 999...best thing to do is to call your local dealer and ask...

My Trip B resets. Not sure about A, I always reset it every time I fill up. But I figure if it does it with B, it would also do it with A.

Trip B definitely resets after 999.9 (mine just did this last night). Like "blacktls07," I reset Trip A every time I fill up. If I remember, I can try switching that routine when I go on vacation, but I'm sure A probably resets too.

Why?

to log oil change intervews, km's travelled on a trip etc.

Have you tried using the trip computer instead of the trip odometers?

ntan

I reset that after each fill up to measure fuel economy heehee

doenst gen3 have an oil change minder like gen2?
Ours resets and triggers a light starting at 6000 miles to remind you

Doesnt the Mid system do the same for Gen3? giving a percentage of life remaining?

I use the the trip computer mileage to keep trac of oil changes, it doesn't reset after 999.9.

The oil change minder on the G3's is not based on straight mileage like the G2's (and my G1 MDX, RSX and G2 CL-S.) It is a true Oil Life Monitor that uses algorithm of vehicle and engine data to determine the life of the oil.

For some that could be well over 6000 miles; unfortunately for me, my dirty urban Jersey often-idling-in-traffic 08 TL MID is reporting 50% oil life remaning after only 2200 miles and three months.

Ntan, you should really use the trip odo for your gas-up mileage checks since those are usually in the sub-500 range and leave the trip computer for longer excursions. There's even a calculator in the Navi to help out... which reminds me, isn't there a hack out there to enable a more full featured navi-based trip computer?

There is a hack, but after a quick review of the NAV section, it doesn't work on my 3G (08 TL-S) . I guess I'll deal with it. Thanks anyways guys! Now onto finding color match for my rims...
