Default Mileage till Empty Replaced by Speedlimit

Okay, so I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug.

In the top line of the in dash data screen I have mileage till empty selected. At one point, I enabled the speed limit to be shown, which takes over the top line. I've since disabled that feature, but it still shows up. My milage till empty comes on when I start the car and from what I can tell randomly appears otherwise.

I'm a doing something wrong? How do I get it to display only the mileage till empty?

Mine seemed to do did the same thing - somehow reenabled itself!
It's easy enough to shut off again if you can find that feature buried in a multifunction gauge submenu. I decided to just leave it on since DTE is displayed by default on the trip info page also.

It does not appear that the option is enabled.

I really don't want to have to do a reset, but I might have to. I think it's a bug.

Could it be that when you changed it you forgot to save the changes to the key you are using? If you don't, then the next time you lock/unlock the car it will revert to the last saved mode.

seat memory holds these settings i believe. if its on when memory is pressed it comes back when memory is recalled.

I think you two are onto something. I'll let everyone know when I get back to my car this afternoon.

Agree with what Nicoli said. I've got my car set to show the speed limit, and it shows the mileage to empty only when there is no speed limit information for the car to show.

Went through the exact same thing, but finally realized I wasn't saving the new setting. Saved it to the key and all is good.

In case you don't know what they're talking about in this thread - photo I took when I first purchased my 991......
