just here to add - you mentioned it was normal for coolant to hover around 80-85, however if you see it go up a bit don't freak out, it just means the AC is off, meaning the fan is off. However, my fan kicks on at 99 and shuts off at about 95 (when idling) so if yours doesn't maybe it should be checked out. just thought i'd add that!

Thank you. Very useful indeed.

Very helpful thank you. My speedometer dial was stuck at 15mph, the sweep test reset it. 😊

Just done the test. I've been having problems in cold weather like 2 or 3 degrees c and my temp gauge only coming upto 3 blocks and not 4 in the middle where it should be. So had a drive around and it's about 5 or 6 degrees outside and it's reading 72 degrees c fluctuating between 70 and 76 if I gun it. Do you guys think this is OK or should I look at getting my thermostat changed??

That was interesting and fun.

Hello, noticed while you were doing the LCD test that a cruise control symbol appeared on the MPG/Odometer screen. Is there anyway to activate this while the cruise control is set? So you have cruise control speed output on the LCD screen

I don't have any idea unfortunately. Best guess is that you could probably get one of the fancy OBD readers from Amazon which you could set up to display it?

It should but you'd have to enter the menu manually each time you start. You can't have it open automatically.

Very useful video. Do you happen to know if you can change the display using the trip button on the left stick or does it HAVE to be that little button as it’d be better for me when driving along to quickly flick between them using that
