Computer Range
Whenever my gas light comes on, the compass computer won't tell me how much further I can go with the gas I have, it just says "FUEL"... is there a way to change that so it reads out how far I can go even when im running out of gas?

When the computer is set to USA your's is behaving normally. There is no way to change it. A BMW I had did the same thing. If you change the computer setting to GER you will find all info in metric with kilometers and then the computer will count down to ) in kilometers. Its easier to just stop at a station and fill up.

Thanks, I know the thing is really accurate, i remember what it says right before it switches to FUEL and add it to my odometer... and when i fill up, it pretty much perfect, which is amazing for the way i drive. I wanted to see it in miles, but ill try out the GER setting when im low on gas.

I've seen mine read as low as 45 miles, but usually it goes to FUEL after 60.
My BMW's would go down as low as 10 before they start blinking...
as if to say, "You're on your own now, buddy."
