Fallschirmjaeger Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Just throwing my $.47 cents in... Yeah the "instant MPG" display is pretty useless, but that's mostly because it's in digital form, not analog. There's a reason why speedometers and tachometers are analog 99% of the time, it's the way our brains are wired to see and anticipate the change as they make their sweeps. I'd Much rather have had an average MPH display, but then we'd get hundreds of threads about "Why is my average speed 34 MPH when all my miles are on the highway?"

vincedog3 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 The E/T display is cool, and the mpg counter is nice but my basic math skills and a watch are all I need to figure those goodies out. Has worked for over 30 years for me. Happy motoring. For your car audio/video needs:D Audio Crafters IS it. In Pasadena Ca.

andaconda Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 ;593588']SOA issued a 2-page TSB on May 10' date=' 2006 for a problem abstracted as: [u']" - : - - " Indicated in Elapsed Time Display[/u]. It's TSB 08-37-06 and described as: "Some 2006MY Legacy/Outback vehicles equipped with Information Display may fail to register Elapsed Time (E/T) or Journey Time when the vehicle is started. This bulletin is to inform of the correct repair procedure for this condition." I've no idea what the "correct repair procedure for this condition" is. I guess we'll just have to hope this TSB will appear in a "timely" fashion at: http://www.thel7.com/tsb.html The problem description suggests this is a MY2006-only problem. Maybe not. Trade my '06 in on an '07 --- kind of miss the "--" in the ET display. I was so used to pausing before I started the car to eliminate the quirk, that I find myself doing the same with the new one.
