Puma MPG Display?
Silly question but does a 2008 Puma have MPG display? I don't see it and I thought I have read other threads discussing the MPG display. Question

No it doesn't, although if you have a scanguage or Torque App you can get it on them.

No.
You need a third party tool (e.g. Scangauge), connect it via ODB port and then you will see it.
Search the forum for "Scangauge" for more details. Janusz

Think you'll find the Scangauge is set for US Gallons so even then it's not accurate for the UK? May be wrong but it's not a function I have use for on mine!

You can change it to litres and mpg in the set up menu though like K9F I don't use it either now. Also you could use good old fashioned grey matter........ Mileage divided by Litres x 4.5 = MPG.

320 miles divided by 54 litres = 5.92 MPL x 4.5= 26.6 MPG

My Scangauge shows MPG based on the US gallon (3.78564 litres).

So to convert this to UK MPG, simply multiply the result by 1.20095... Simple to do on a calculator, but a sod to do at 70MPH!

1 UK Gallon = 4.54609 litres
1 US Gallon = 3.78541 litres

1 UK Gallon is 1.20095 x US Gallon.

Personally, I don't bother with the running MPG, as it goes up and down faster than whores drawers on a payday at the docks! ... ,-------,

I am using PLX Kiwi Wifi as ODB2-WLAN Bridge and the Rev2 Application on the iPhone4. As this is my nav anyways, it was the easiest way to go. Never forget: cars have owner, Landrover have field service personnel.

The default setting on the scangauge is US gallons, but its very simple to recalbrate (takes just one tankfull) and the instructiosn are quite clear on how to do this (yeh does mean you have to read them though) Rolling Eyes

Scanguage 2 v ScanguageE v Turboguage v Ultraguage
The scanguage box looks interesting (especially coming from a disco3 where everything is on display)

I see there are two versions, anyone had any experience of the ScanguageE? from what I can see it has all the same functions - except it only has two things shown at once and doesn't read/clear fault codes.

ScanguageE is a fair bit cheaper (and smaller), so the question is really, are the extra features of the original Scanguage2 worth the extra cash ?

I'm guessing the likely answer is they are the whole point of having it so faults can be read and cleared, the other info shown is possibly of secondary importance.

Any views on that please.

Also see there is also Turboguage which looks a bit similar and priced as low as £65 from China, so I'm guessing that's a knock off with no support, and another Ultraguage, more to look at the Scanguage, cheaper but a horrid blue colour and import from USA only, so not sure what to put on the Crimbo list really, maybe I'll hedge my bets and go for socks and hanks again Very Happy
