A silly question, but I don't have a owners manual....

A silly question, but I don't have a owners manual....

Post by ed209 »

The info screen on my d9, which displays the radio station, time and temp etc has a setting for mpg in its menu. I dont seem to have a trip computer (no buuton on the end of the stalk). Should there be a trip computer, or is the settings menu the same throughout the range? Mine is a 2.0 GLX :?:

That was very cruel of Peugeot to raise hopes like that :|

It's a bit like they way they put a coin holder where the heated seat switches should be :P

Isn't there a rotary switch on the side of the display like the D8 trip computer to set the mode?
