Default Dumb question about speedometer display

I used to have the average MPG bar graph displayed right under my tachometer and MPH display. I got the car lowered last week and now the display is gone and it's replaced my an option to switch between MPH and KM/H, which doesn't do me any good. I read the Owner's Manual and it tells me what that display is but not how to get it back if someone removes it. I've gone into settings and ifo. I can change all of the data parameters. I just can't get it back in the instrument pod. I would rather have MPG data there than the option to toggle the distance measurement. Anyone know how to fix this? I am very frustrated by it.

I should add it's an IS250 F-Sport. I can change the needles and do all the other fun stuff. I just can get it to do this.

Back through the manual again. They don't tell you how to get that bar gauge back. Very frustrating. Apparently, it's simple enough that someone could haplessly disable it.



The current MPG display that the tach needle is going through is the one that is MIA.

The up/down arrow on the right side of your steering wheel will switch what's display. Scroll through it until you find MPG.

Thanks very much! I feel like a bit of a mouthbreather for not knowing that. I was messing around thinking is was one of the custom settings.

you can actually customize up to 4 different options displayed when using the up/down arrows. You can find it the settings for the gauges, info 1 and info 2.
