There’s a reset button on the info panel just above the buttons to set the clock. Doesn’t change anything about the perpetually inaccurate MPG readouts (always significantly higher than reality) but it’s there.

I reset the trip odometer at every fill-up. Since my MPG rarely drops below 16 in normal driving, I use that x 23 (tank capacity rounded down) to establish an absolute “comfortable” range of 368 miles. I usually refuel at 340 pr so.

I would kill for 360 miles per tank. 230-240 for me. I have a short commute and mostly back roads, no highway.

I experienced this issue after having a lot of work done to my 06 V8 and assumed it was due to the battery and fuel systems being disconnected for an extended period. Ran out of gas twice before I realized what was going on. Recalibrated and now I am a whole lot closer to accurate but still off a bit, perhaps due to my lift/level kit. Does anybody know how I could compensate for it so my gauge is accurate or even just forgiving. Do I need to do the procedure nose down or nose up to increase or decrease perceived fuel level? I've thought about just putting a level on a stock t4r running board and then trying to find a spot to match it with my suspension
