I'm now on my second tank of gas with my new XV and the computer is giving me just wacky read outs that don't seem to reflect my actual MPG.
I am 20 miles into my latest tank of gas, I reset the trip computer immediately after I filled up. The fuel gauge still shows as a full tank (which is reasonable, since the last tank was manually calculated to give me 25+ MPG). However, the in-dash readout is saying I have 260 miles of gas remaining (can't be right, it said something like 380 right after I filled up) and that I am averaging only 15-16 MPG (also can't be right, since I don't believe I've even used a gallon out of the tank yet). The computer was within 1 MPG of actual MPG on my last tank of gas. What the heck could be going on here? Could I have set something incorrectly when I reset the trip read out? Worth a dealer service visit? Or wait and see?
