Monaros have 2 trip distance readouts...???

[bobfredstinker]

Been a while since I posted here, so hi again, everyone!

So I took the Monaro out today for the first time in a couple of weeks, and was switching through the modes on the digital display when I noticed something I have never seen before in 7 years of ownership...

Apparently it has both 'Trip distance A' and 'Trip distance B'!?!?

I swear that was never there before, and the trip time on B reads something like 7000 hours!

Why would this have just suddenly appeared??

Have all of yours had this all along?

Always there. I think you can turn it on or off if you dig into the settings.

Well, there we go. No idea why it wasn't there for last 8 years, and no idea how it randomly appeared, but now I have it. Not sure how much use I'll get out of it...

The His and Hers keys include the 1 or 2 trips function.
Was one key set for 1 trip and the second key set for 2 trips?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!!

Now you mention it, I did use the other key yesterday as my main one is starting to disintegrate. That explains it then!!

It is mildly annoying though, as my main key is set up to unlock only the drivers door first, but doesn't have the two trip function, whereas the second key is vice versa!

With your second key in and vehicle stationary, go through ALL the settings. Electric seat presets, radio stations, door lock and lights preferences, aircon settings, 2 or 1 trips (as marksx says, trips are in there somewhere, read handbook?), EVERYTHING goes "Mr or Mrs"!

Disintegrating rubber buttons are easily replaced from Aussie Ebay.
Push into place from the outside of the key.
