Any more news on this?

Apparently Honda are looking into this, "but not immediately".

I'm like you, waiting for this to be sorted.

This effectively puts September this year out so I'm looking at Sept next year.

Chatting with a neighbour with a 08 Focus Zetec.

It seems the Focus, when the low fuel warning light comes on, the trip computer automatically changes to tank range.

What a good idea

Polo have the same solution. And it's rather nice.

The iMid screen on the 9G Civic sedan displays average fuel consumption and range at the same time.

Hmmm,i think it's because the instant fuel consumption meter is on the side of the speedometer so there is more room on the iMid screen.

If the UK version can do this then I'd be quite happy to have that as a permanent display.

Yes, same on the Fiesta - common sense really. Whenever the fuel level is low the trip computer display defaults to tank range every time the car is started.

Apologies for digging up an old thread, but this bug/feature is apparently in the new model CR-V.

Huge facepalm....

Not listening to their customers yet then ?

I can hang a while longer, especially now I know that the ES-T doesn't have handsfree phone dialing via the steering wheel.
