yeah it's the one with the little arrow...either of the two DIC buttons will clear it off of the low fuel message...

I agree, man must be in control of his DIC at all times

I just filled my tank up and I had gone about 405 and the DIC told me I could go about another 70 or so

Sometimes you just have to ignore the DIC...

I've never had it say 500 miles...but mostly when I fill up it says 410...and then depending on how I drive leaving the station it goes up to 450 sometimes...

I'm still not going off what the...display says. I think after the first oil change and probably after 10,000 miles the ...display... will be accurate.

Miami city traffic is just as bad as NY. I don't think mine has said anything over 20 MPG. That could be because 75% of my driving is trips of less than 5 miles at a time. And sometimes it could take over 1/2 hour to go that far!
