Is it possible to get instantaneous fuel consumption? I've just been resetting the average fuel consumption by holding the button on the end of left hand stalk.

I've done mainly freeway driving (probably 60%), and the ocassional spirited driving in-between, and averaged 6.2 L/100km and 51 km/h for the first 2500kms (without resetting any of the averages). FYI: I have a 1.6L manual Zetec 5door, with the factory option 17inch wheels and Falken tyres ( 452's I think), and been running Caltex Vortex 98 petrol.

The car is currently at the dealer for the 3,000 km service. I will let you know if there's any change in fuel consumption. But I think that 6.2 L/100km is pretty good anyway.
