In Menu -> Info Phone -> Fuel Consumption

How can I reset the fuel consumption?

Please advise. Thanks.

I couldn't find it on Owner Manual...



.

im guessing its that "CLEAR" button in that picture. lol

Thanks... LOL.

"Clear" will only clear the current records/info.

"Reset" will start the new point to record the new MPG info. This is what I'm looking for. Each chart/column on the screen can record their own MPG.

Is this related to this issue? If I reset "Average fuel consumption", will this "Fuel Consumption" of Navi get "reset" at the same time?

I should give it a try tomorrow.

The instrument cluster has 7-8 display contents to show off the trip information.

Owner Manual PAGE 166

still does not say how to reset it!

press and hold the enter button for 2 seconds I believe.

I don't believe you can reset it; it only starts over when filled with fuel!! I know most cars can be zeroed at any point so you can see actual mileage on a freeway, or around town, but this is a fill only reset.

I did mine last week, just don't remember exactly how. Pretty sure I held down the enter button though. Saw zero's on the monitor

On which monitor??

Here it is from the 450 manual. Not sure if different for 350 but can't see why it would be.

NO, you can "clear fuel consumption, but ONLY zero the whole system by filling it on a RX350!!

I just looked at the 11 350 manual and it has the exact same instructions as the 450. Wouldn't make any sense to not be able to zero it out periodically.

Someone give it a try and see if it zero's out. Maybe we aren't talking about the same thing. I'm only talking about the reset of the mutil information diplay above the steering wheel, not the info in the nav screen. I didn't look to see how my reset affected the information on the nav fuel consumption which since it's hstorical, likely won't.

I will try to make this simple....I bought gas, I drove 57 miles, NOW I want too ZERO the average fuel mileage to see what kind of mileage I get from mile 58 to mile 137(Flat land lets say),
NO, that cannot be done on a Lexus; on my former Cadillac and my GTO it CAN be done!!

So what will the "average fuel consumption" gauge show if you reset it at 57 mile and check it again at 137 mile?

It will tell me exactly what gas mileage I am getting at 60, 65,70, whatever speed I am traveling on flat ground at a definite temperature, or climbing a mountain. . My lexus ALWAYS will blend that number to the point that now when I want to know what gas mileage I am getting on a trip to Vegas I stop at the closest station by the exit and top off...it is the ONLY way a Lexus will tell me information that is anywhere close to accurate!! ALL American cars I have had with a "trip computer" have had a "ZERO" you could use at any time starting my my Ford Aerostar van in 1989!
