here in canada the highest DTE we can get is 620, and mine stays like that untill about 150 miles of driving. This last tank i filled up at 752 miles, and used 36 gallons. I can squeeze 43 gallons in the stock tank.

My reads 568 consistantly; I installed a 56 gallon Transfer Flow replacement tank and put about 50 gallons US into the tank after a 950 mile trip. The overhead must calculate Imperial miles not statute miles, but the vehicle was assembled in Mexico, something ain't right here is South Texas

Conversions - 3.79 Litres to 1 gallon US, 1 gallon Imperial to 1.2 gallon US, 950 miles US / 568 miles Imperial, umm 1.67 miles US to 1 mile Imperial could that be right?

Mines reads anywhere from 560 to 620. Just filled tonight and it says 580. DTE is close to dead on, MPG is way off.

No matter what I do, how I drive, my DTE always reads 620 on fill-up even though I have gone 750+ on a tank.
