I believe that it is a cumulative mpg, so if you've driven it 10,000 miles without resetting it it wont change very much. When you hit reset it resets the miles traveled vs the gallons of gas used

Welcome to the forum. :)

Paul is correct in the above post. The calculation is a cumulative one.

I find that it is pretty accurate for me of I reset at each fill up.

I reset mine each time I fill up. It's never accurate anyways.

There are modules like scan gauge to get real time MPGs if that's what your looking for
