Friends:
Recently had a turbocharger hose pop offon my 94 850t. Not sure what was causing all the problems I took it in for repair. Car now runs beautifully -- BUT, for some odd reason the fuel economy readings on the dashboard trip computer are running backwards. When I cram the accelerator, the computer says I am getting super mileage, and when I let off and virtually coast downhill, it says I am getting way under 10 mpg. Seems something must have been reversed or something. Any ideas? Joe |

(are you sure you weren't standing on your head when you read the display???? just kidding) good luck! |

Sounds like an excuse to floor it and drive like a wild man, while still getting great gas mileage. I wouldn't change a thing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
