Noob with a real Noob question!

Post by Kanza » Sun Apr 15, 2012 10:25 am

Hi All,

Nice place you have here and learning a lot, thanks. I'm English, in Spain and just picked up a 02, 3.0i sport.

Noob question of the year, as I can read the manual yet is....how the hell do you reset the average fuel mileage?

Cheers, Mark

Hi Mark and welcome to the forum.... :thumbsup: :D

If you need an English Manual then these will help. How to do it will depend upon the actual spec.

And don't forget the piccies.... :poke:
And this topic by our own Sanj tells you how.

Hi Guy's

Thanks for the link to the manual...well i read it, and damn it, I cant appear to get it to reset. I press that BC in and hold, does not reset - maybe have to go to a dealer for a thumb reprint.

Petrol used to be cheap here at 1 euro for shell ultra or whatever, (98 plus anyway) that was about 3 years back. Now, 1.64 euro a litre of same. So not cheap at all anymore, the eurozone is getting leveled out i guess.

Hi & welcome :thumbsup:

Does your 'X' have Sat Nav? if so you should be able to go to the OBC section and re set from there. On every BMW I have had, you have always been able to re set average consumption from the BC button on the indicator stalk
