Re: Anyone get a Scangauge to work on a FFH?

The fact that I asked specifically about reading the FEH state of charge before sending them my SG II (and paying for the upgrade) probably has something to do with it. Not to mention the fact that...

Re: Anyone get a Scangauge to work on a FFH?

I contacted the Linear Logic support folks via e-mail as I had just sent in my SG II to be upgraded but it couldn't read the battery state of charge, etc. They replied that the problem was likely the...

Re: Anyone get a Scangauge to work on a FFH?

I've been searching the forum trying to do the same with my 2011 FEH.

I had a version "3.15*" ScanGauge, which is reported to be unable to read the SOC. I sent it back to be upgraded and got a...

Re: What Gas Mileage Are You Getting With Your Vue?

Now that I've done a few more tanks on 93 octane, it's clear that it has no real impact on the mileage. The scanguage MPG readout varies wildly in accuracy from tank-to-tank which fooled me. Once I...

Re: What Gas Mileage Are You Getting With Your Vue?

I started with 93 octane and noticed an immediate improvement in my mileage. I'll give it a few tanks to settle down and see if it's really worth it, but the first indication is pretty good: 33 mpg...

Re: Can somebody clean up....

I'm finding the scanguage to be either optimistic or pessimistic depending on the type of travel you're doing. Short hops it's pretty pessimistic; for highway mileage it's optimistic. I've settled on...

Re: What Gas Mileage Are You Getting With Your Vue?

He's had Saturn look over the GL and give it a clean bill of health. He's seeing worse performance than most, probably due to a combination of a sub-par vehicle and traffic that doesn't fit well with...

Re: What Gas Mileage Are You Getting With Your Vue?

I'm getting 25 MPG with mostly short commutes. There are people doing far better than that, and some doing rather worse.

Re: Saturn Vue Hypermileing Tips

I agree. Thanks!



The ScanGauge gets fuel flow data from the engine control module (ECM) and uses that to display current MPG. You have the ability to calibrate the reading to compensate for...

Angry Re: No Hybrid Tax Credit with AMT

The AMT is a travesty passed because some number of millionaires (less than 20) managed to find ways to pay no tax at all. Inflation has made more and more people subject to AMT, screwing them. It is...

Re: Just days away from my new Vue!

As long as that interstate isn't stop and go, you'll make better than the quoted mileage. I had one run at 35 MPG with four adults and baggage, mostly at 70 MPH. Keep the speed down a bit and you'll...

Re: Just days away from my new Vue!

No, you won't get Prius numbers in the city. I'm averaging around 25 MPG (24.7) on mostly local commuting traffic. (My commute to work is less than four miles each way so I'm pretty close to the...

Re: Just days away from my new Vue!

Thanks for the welcome, it's appreciated.

I had an interesting drive today to work - my commute is rather a short one (less than four miles each way) with speed bumps, stop signs, and a traffic...

Re: Just days away from my new Vue!

I'm getting on the order of 26 MPG on my Green Line with what's more or less 80% suburb driving (in Metro DC). Highway mileage is much better than EPA, but the "city" mileage is more like 20 MPG for...
