i dont think this country ("repuplic" of south africa) has a t4 machine. the one ive seen at what i belive to be the last dealer looks shockingly similar to a generic carman thingy... can i ask a dealer in the uk to look it up or must the car be showing those errors for him to know what they mean? thanks mr tc |

You actually travel 500km on this amount. Again, get the accurate distance from your brim-brim runs. So the Measured Consumption is 500/64.8 = 7.72 km/l Your computer is saying it's 10 km/l so that's the Indicated Consumption. The Correction Factor (using a calculator) is: Indicated x 1000 / Measured = 10 x 1000 / 7.72 = 1295 (forget any decimals) So you replace the existing Factor with this one. Go to test 20 and you'll see the existing Factor ('ABCD'). Change D to 5 Change C to 9 Change B to 2 Change A to 1 (if necessary) by following the routine described in the instructions. Now when you use the trip computer to display your fuel consumption, it will be much nearer the truth. Note that you must allow the computer to run a good while (1000 km or so) without resetting it to get a meaningful result. Quote:
You might try Keith Alexander (user name 'Keith'), he has a T4. TC My Quick find marker = IPKDM (IPK Diagnostics Mode) |
thank you for explaing it so clealy. even i understand now:D will do a couple more brim to brim fills and do the calculations. although getting "10l/100km" urban is very nice in an 1.8 auto the size of a rover75...
i'll track down mr keith and appeal to him for help. would love to know whats wrong with my beloved again, thank you for your help:} |
"Spoke" with TC and he has mentioned that this is an "on-going" project. As he discovers more, he will post. So WIP..... ;)

Hi T-Cut,
Good work. I have used your instructions to check all the lamps and dials in step 2.0 because the Left Turn Arrow does not show up when moving the direction indicator lever down. The test shows that everything but the Left Turn Arrow lamp is OK. But - since I did the test the temperature and tachometer readings stay on zero and the daytime running light does not work. When I test them in step 2.0 all the dials work. I have checked the three instrument pack 5A fuses and they are OK. Have you seen this before? What also puzzles me is that the VIN is shown as _13354 and not 133549. Best Regards from Denmark |
Thanks T-Cut just what I needed. Car running at 48 degrees on coolant. New stat required. Question is now OEM or in top hose.
