Not sure if it'll have it - does it have readings for average MPH, average speed etc.? On my new SR diesel, you press the button on the left of the display and it cycles through instantaneous MPG, average MPG, average speed and miles.

I didn't have this feature on my 2001 sr but have got it on my 2003 t-sport so not sure if it came in like 2002-2003 or something?? To be honest though I don't think it's very accurate!

It's a feature on the Phase 2 model only - one of the many additional features ;)

Press the trip button (on the lower right hand side next to the radio display) and it will bring up the current MPG that second, average speed, average consumption and the "range" which shows how many miles the computer has calculated you have left in the tank.

Both our 2002 T-Sport and 2005 Blue have it - so did the 2004 T3 I used to have, which is shown in the pic below. It's a handy feature I guess, but I've calculated how many miles I do roughly to a full tank, which is in the region of 330 and use the trip a odometer to keep check on how much I've done. As soon as it gets to around 330 then I fill up depending on how economical I've been driving and can guestimate how longer I can get away with it or just wait until the gauge starts flashing! We have had it plenty of times when the range says 0 but of course it keeps on going. I'd definately recommend you fill up with a full tank for a few times and keep an eye on how many miles you do and calculate it that way. Ok the digital fuel gauge can be wrong too, but I trust that a bit more than the old range - plus the range calculates how much is left going on your average speed etc.
