Apart from reading the on screen info, I note the mileage on the petrol receipt on filling and enter details on computer - getting around 24mpg (UK)on mainly local driving with 2.5 auto..have had 30mpg on highway.Non-return valve fitted by dealer in 5 minutes cure leaking washer.

My experience is about the same as Mike's. Topped at about 30, but I was driving like a little old lady. Stopped looking at mileage when I was satisfied with the results.


My 2.5 with auto does NOT have a "message center", so how did you figure out mileage; outside of the obvious way of reading trip meter and checking how much you added at your next fillup and then dividing the number of gallons into the mileage? Got anything simpler?
