sir i am attaching an old picture of the instrument panel. if you see clearly the LED display shows clock, fuel & temperature and above its hows mileage & other displays, i will post a picture in a couple of days which shows the fuel remaining in litres for your viewing.

For that follow these instructions:
1. Keep Engine Off.
2. Press the Trip Button (there's only one there)
3. Keeping the button pressed, turn the ignition key to turn on the Panel (dont start the car though) PIC 1

4. Keep the button pressed until you enter "Diagnostic Mode" where you will the see the Tachometer & Speedometer move wierdly in steps (may freak you out) PIC2

5. Press the Trip button again, you will see all the LCD segments displayed PIC3

6. The next click there is a number with a small 'L' at the bottom of it. Thats the fuel remaining in the tank! PIC4

now thats one trick i will definitely try out on my verna and will report back .... pretty handy trick it sure is !

[esteem_lover]

I am sure it works only in the Logan

Nice find

Well tried it on my Fiesta and the same things happen with the odometer but couldn't find the litre thing,will check again was in a hurry while trying it

[snaronikar]

Woah!! This is very good trick....Guys, try in your respective cars. Hope this works.

@ anil: Are you sure that the "L" and 13 is that of remaining fule left in tank? Did you open your tank and check or you tested this with the mileage? I'am just curious....

Safari doesnt have the digital display for Fuel/ Temp, but still I tried and did not work.

my friend who tried it had reading displayed as 20L & when he went to the petrol pump & topped-up his car with 29L going in. So it is pretty accurate.

[anilkalvani]

Just topped up my car yesterday. the reading is pretty accurate i may say

the image shows the reading before filling fuel 10L, note the time 10.56



after filling the image shows 50L, the time is 11.01



Invoice attached (40.32L, so i feel its pretty accurate)

As i said it worked on the Logan & i dont think any of the cars you mentioned have a LCD display similar to the Logan's. Talking about the DLS version, it does'nt require this trick, it shows the reading by simply pressing the trip button!
