    Default Most fuel consumptious VN

    Hey guys i was just wondering if any of you guys hav a vn thats as close to fuel consumtious as mine!!! on the freeway the instantaneous fuel consumption is showing 0.7 l/100km... lol.. an with full throttle..its drinking about 1.3 l/100km!!!!

    i kno that thers a problem with the level 3 calais dashboard.. has anyone had the same problem because its so annoying. ill go to fill up on petrol.. the guage is empty an when i look at the "fuel used" screen, it says like only 12 litres has been used. is it a problem with the ecu?? i have an s-pac so i wired up the dash a while ago..but it has just been recently that its showing these stupid figures.. ok for anyone whos going to say i stuffed up the wiring.. me an my cusin whos an automotive electrician wired it up by using a thread in this forum on wiring up the dashboard. it RAN perfectly..but now only occasionally u will see a normal number pop up. the dashboard came off a smashed vn calais.. so the actual dash mite be wrecked inside.. has anyone encountered the same problem???
