does anyone know how reset the gas milage range in the dashboard info?

You cannot "reset" it... its how much there is in the gas tank. How many miles do you get on the "reader" after you fill up?

240 on the fill up but one thing i dont get is that by the time i go on empty i have had more than that on trip meter i reset it to zero to see actual milage and its 350 but i dont know why it doest read 350 range left when i fill up?

I believe that the way it works is that it calculates the range based on your cumulative average mpg x amt of fuel in the tank. If your car has been driven a lot of city miles, the average mpg will be low and so the projected range will be low. My wife drives mostly in the city, and when we went on a long trip in her car last week the range displayed only 260 miles when I filled it up. I went almost 400 miles before I had to refill. After driving almost 1000 miles, the last time I filled the car it displayed around 280 mile range, so it was gradually increasing as the average mpg increased.

you can't reset the range. you can reset all the others by holding the disp button down.

Hey to reset the average and such, simply disconnect the battery for about a minute and reconnect it. It will redetermine your driving style and MPG.

thanks a lot megafast 13 it seems better getting 330 miles than 240 even though it depends on how i drive
