Re: How to clean the front lip and rear valance

Cruise Control SEt Speed not Displayed
Suddenly my car has stopped displaying the set speed - instead three small lines apper where the speed should be shown in the dash.
The cruise control is working OK - but not displaying the set speed.
Strangely the set speed shows in the Speed Limit mode

Re: Fuel consumption
To get an accurate mpg fiure for each tank of fuel and the overall economy. I always brim the tank until the fuel is almost spilling out each time I refuel.
