Cheers - pretty sure it doesn't tell you that anywhere in the manual or quick start guide, and it's not the sort of place you see it easily when in the driver's seat. Freelander 2 SD4 HSE - Ipanema Sand - MD co-pilot - Springer Spaniel in boot - Swift Challenger on the back! |

Does anyone know if it is possible to update the trip computer to include instant fuel economy readouts on my 2008 HSE. I had a 2010 GS courtesy car recently and that had the option to show instant economy as well as average readings?

Nope. Different hardware (electronics) and, of course, different firmware (software). And it wont work even if you change the IC (Instrument Cluster) with a new one. The time shown on the new ICs is kept on the Central Junction Box. And the CJB is like a hub for almost all electronic systems on the car. So also changing the CJB will lead to a lot of other problems... I don't say it can't be done... It's a lot of headaches if you try to... Upgrading the whole car could be a lot easier...
Are you sure it shows instant fuel consumption on your 2007 car??? |

I'm going to the dealers tomorrow to collect the front bib spoilers I ordered after seeing Mav71's pics. I'll ask the service manager whilst I'm there too. I would have thought it should have been a standard feature, it is on my wifes 2007 Mini Cooper.

No instant readout on Mrs Dave's 2007 GS nor on my old one, only average consumption I'm afraid. ______________________

Instant fuel consumption readout is laughable on mine, a light throttle in 4th gear at 30/35mph and the readout jumps erratically from 30 to 90 and anything in between

I asked the service manager about the instant fuel economy readout and he confirmed what Alex said. It's no great problem really, just wondered if mine was not working. Service manager did say he thought it would have been a standard feature on the HSE though.
