Hi everyone...
Not sure if I said - but this is the new one with the stop/start technology in it... it goes into some kind of warm-idle state or something like that... Basically, you put the car in neutral, take your foot off the clutch and then it turns off. Then as soon as you put your foot on the clutch it comes back on and you pull off as normal (in gear of course ;-) ) Must admit, Im a tad worried about it breaking down (new technology phobia!) and my husband keeps stalling it, but hey ho, we will get there... This morning when I went out in it, the last fuel line thing was flashing away and it took 34.7 litres (sorry dont know what that is in gallons) - given it says its a 42 litre tank, I think the mileage to go thing just needs a bit of action and then it might be correct. It said I had 0 for at least two miles as I limped to the closest petrol station! I think I am going to agree with the comment about not watching the miles... It does make everything more stressful! Thanks everyone Sue |
