Its switched to gallons consumption per hour, rather than mpg. Corrrect thing to do when at idle.

Also, your check light is on  ;)

Its normally at 2 while in traffic? The last couple of days it started reading 0.

And I broke my brake pad sensor wire :-[

Dont think that was what was being asked.

I would be happy if my car gave zero consumption at tickover rather than 0.3 or 0.4 gall per hour....

I must be missing something....  4 pots run on air at tickover??   :-?  0.0 gall/hour....   8-)

mine varies between 0.2 and 0.3 gals/hr at idle depending on what ancilliaries I have switched on. I don't think I have ever seen it show 0:0? When I first got the car and and it showed 999.99 on overrun, I was like a pig in shi*e for about 1 minute until reality set in & I realised what a plonker I was LOL :D ;D ;D ;)
