    Hey all

    If you have been checking out the forums recently , I have had the 3 Stage all put in

    Air Con now works, all sweet

    but, considering it is manual, my fuel consumption per 100ks just says zero

    and What would be the best way to adjust the flow cal

    Looking at another forum , it vary's to the size of your wheels

    I have 19's so if there is any solution to using the same someone elses flowcal

    and the litres per 100kms it would be greatly appriciated

    i'd say something isn't hooked up quiet right. even if the calibration number was wrong you would still get a reading for ltrs/100km. do you get an instant fuel reading at all or distance travelled?

    Thanks struggo, good stuff

    but...

    It doesnt come up with anything at all

    just 0.00L per 100

    0.00 litres used

    and the other one, cant remember

    i might see if I hook up another one if anything changes

    bare in mind

    I used the Berlina/Calais loom to install it, and it still hooked up the to the original BCM and VS manual ECU

    it's not hooked up right as your not getting any readings at all. i'm sure there are some threads about changing to the L3 clusters so i'm sure somebody knows what you need to do/change

    Extra Wire?

    Did you connect the extra wire required for the fuel flow? This wire is additional to those than come with the fourth connector?

    by stage 3 do you mean the level 3 dash? the wire that goes across to the ECU is what sends the instantaneous fuel usage data. if its not connected properly it will just read 0
