The trip computer on my 08 FJR (US import to the UK) shows the avg. fuel consumption as being 37 mpg (us gal) and appears to be stuck at this.
I noticed a while back the fuel gauge dropped to show reserve just as I started it, even though there was plenty of fuel left. Not unusual when first starting up in the morning, but rather than clicking back to a bar or two a few miles later it showed full then went completely blank. It did this once more and then appeared to work again, but was very optimistic, 24lts of fuel with fuel gauge still showing 2-3 bars. The next fill up and all the rest have been fine, but the av consumption has stayed at 37, which unfortunately is not the case. Is it just a coincidence that the fuel gauge and avg consumption went funny at about the same time?
Anyone else had a similar experience or know why, I see that there was a problem with 06 models showing 17mpg on the instant?
