Default Re: Significant discrepancy between trip computer mpg and actual mpg calculations
Way off on this tank. Trip computer says 419 miles, 31.8 mpg, for a fuel usage of 419/31.8 = 13.2 gal.

Gas tank reading = 14.933 gal, implies actual mileage is 28.1 mpg.

Hmmm....

Also, less than 30 miles left on the range on the trip computer and less than 15 gallons filled??? No way the tank is 17 gal.
