distance left?
so not using the car this weekend, checked how much fuel was in with the distance left to run, it read 96 miles, so thought i would pop a tenner in , fuel gauge pointer moved, but i still had the same distance left on the dash , is a tenner not enough to trigger it or something ? also its still reading 33.9 mpg & average speed 16 mph , although i flogged it up & down the local duel carriageway for the emissions before its taxi test, im confused

update anyway, took it to stradstones & a smashing lad called jason knocked off the auto locking & re programmed my fob, everything is sweet now, cost ? nothing

well, bit the bullet !!
well, got her home , drives like a dream, one problem though , when we parked up the central locking didn't seem to work , i opened the car with the fob, ( all doors opened) we jumped in drove home & the doors locked by themselves, ( i thought i had just knocked the lever to lock or something ), when we got home , we tried the door handles to open but they were locked, so i took the fob out , pressed open , they sounded like they opened but were still locked, is there a sequence or something to lock/unlock these cars ? would appreciate a answer asap if poss, its getting tested for a taxi soon & will be no good if the punters cant get out
