Just wondering if anyone knew how to change the setting on the dash computer on an E46 (1999) from l/100km to MPG.Ive tried pressing the usual supects(both buttons in the dash and also holding the indicator column button),but no joy.

Cant find anything in the owners manual about it.

Have you tried getting the fuel display up on the dash and then holding down the left dash button for a few seconds? Failing that try the same with the right one.

It is a car/key memory option and so needs changing by a BMW dealer, an indie with the right gear or DIY with the right software / laptop cable
