    I have bought a new Ford Focus C-Max diesel.
    Problems are:
    1. trying to get odometer to imperial miles
    2. trip computer light remains on when car is turned off,

    Any suggestions to cure any of the above problems would be greatly appreciated

    Steve

    these aren't problems, more features. the odometer will be in km's only, and can't be switched to miles. and the trip computer light should turn off when you lock the car.

    Thanx Colm,
    but just wondering why trip computer can give miles per gallon and how many miles left with remaining fuel but still cant tell you how many miles you have done?

    more due to the change over to kilometres last year.
    my car's the same too, the trip computer has miles or kilometres but the odometer has been changed to miles.

    probably because people are still dealing in miles per gallon and not litres per 100 km

    oh sorry, didn't mean miles, meant km's. the odometer can't be changed to miles. they are kilometres only, all new cars are in kilometres only
