Any warning lights on the dash or messages in the info screen? Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

If you scroll through the computer on the left stalk it should show what the fault is

An "i" on the info display means there is a message

He needs to press the "i" button and scroll through the avg mpg, speed, range and it will come up on there

Sounds like it maybe reduced engine performance

Has he tried pulling up, turning off, locking it and letting it rest for 10 mins and then restart it? Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I had a similar fault on my old RX8 when the catalytic converter started to disintegrate and blocking normal exhaust gas flow. Everything is relative to my point of view
