2007 C230 can you tell the miles till you round out of gas

I have been wondering about this and the screen the 2007 has in it. Can anyone tell me if 2007 C230 tell you how many miles you have left over before totally running out of gas?

I see a screen or two with mileage but it is not making sense to me

Does it have this feature?

Yes it does have that feature as seen here:



Note: The tank content will not be there by default. It must be programmed with a STAR diagnostic system with developer mode.

Ahhhh thanks! I just found it. I also see that the computer system has to rethink. It went from 111mi and dropped down to 106mi as I warmed it up!

THANKS!

Yes. Though, I wouldn't suggest running to zero before filling up all the time. It is meant to be another measure of how much fuel remaining, but it isn't highly accurate.

Only a woman would run the car to 0 miles before refilling, eh? My ***** begs to differ.
