ozowen 2 Posted July 13, 2011 Hya, Can't help you on the 99.9 mpg, other than its fubared or you are driving very very slow. MFA 1 and MFA 2 I can; MFA1 is a trip computer per journey, it does take into account stops, it also self resets but I don't know the time period before reset. MFA2 gives roughly the same information bar for its an accumilation of all your journeys so if mpg was wokring the 2 should post different figures as will your average speed. Both can be reset by pulling slider towards the number. Reply sent using "non technical jargon" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liamtg60 10 Posted July 13, 2011 so what gives the clocks the information to display 99.9? sum sensor or something? maybe ive knocked sumthing in the engine bay. I cant find anything tho but I have had the car in bits this last week Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leeeeshad 0 Posted July 13, 2011 On the back of the clocks there is a tube connected that feeds a vacuum to the clocks for the MPG telling them how much fuel is being used, this has probably come off, it just pushes back on. ---------- Post added at 07:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ---------- What's wrong about the speed? is it jumping about? If so there is a sensor on the gearbox, assuming your car has a digital odometer readout not an analog scrolling one, if it's analog then you have a cable instead.

Grim1 1 Posted July 15, 2011 I'm glad someone else has had this problem. Mine was doing the same, so I'll be having the clocks out tomorrow to get this sorted. Sent from my HTC Desire S using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild-Animal 0 Posted July 24, 2011 You dont have to take the clocks out, to get at the hose all you have to do is take the lower panal of and get up behind the clocks, as you cant put the pipe on then put the clocks back into prostion as the bit of pipe I don't thin is long enough.
