C230K Trip Computer
My trip computer seems a little confused. Sometimes, the "after start" data will show a longer trip than the "after reset" data, though it may have been a week since I last reset.
Also, the average speed indication seems artificially low. I know it averages in idle time, etc., but it still seems off.
I'll have to clock the odometer against some mile markers to see if the problem is speed sensing or fuel sensing.
Any thoughts out there?

I have had the same problem. For example I have an eighteen mile commute which takes 30 min. Most of it is at highway speeds but it only reads 10mph at the first stop light. Very odd. Been that way from the start. I've been waiting for something else to break before taking it in.
