Car computer
« on: February 23, 2011, 09:29:08 AM »
Does anyone know how to set the car computer on ?

I don't know if the word 'car computer' is right but what I mean is that, you can see how many km of fuel still left in the tank and how much fuel your car has spent in 100km.

Cause I know that the car already has the sensors to measure those, and also I know the orginal display supports it, but it need to plug somewhere on.

So you would like to retrofit the on oars computer or to fit something like a ScanGauge II ?

Not sure on where the computer "fits" but the ScanGauge II just plugs into the OBD port and is much more versatile (and probably accurate)

Actually I don't wanna fit any screens or etc. I saw one 44 where the information came into the same display where you can see your trip meter, total km, fuel and etc. And when pressed the button over the km/h meter it changed the display and they were able to see how much is the average consumption and how many km you can still drive with the fuel you have left in the tank.'

And that was "after market" updated.
