What's the most patrician dashboard info setting? I'm a big fan of fuel range but I also do like instant MPG.
>>
Brightness as dim as possible.
Off.
I'd turn off the Traction Control - Off light if I could, as well.
>>
>>17659899
I do like the mpg setting. Sometimes I'll use the radio view but the touchscreen display in my car is so big it's mostly unnecessary. Don't have a pic of my actual cluster but I drive a 200.

Mine displays remaining range and instant MPG on the same screen. I'd more often have it on the music info setting but for whatever reason my new phone doesn't like to send that over bluetooth to the car.

In your case: outdoor ambient temperature and/or compass.

Or nothing. Anything that can be shown on a display like that is superfluous.

What does the front torque guage mean?
I guess it has something to do with atessa but I've never seen it before
>>
>>17660434
It's rear wheel drive until it looses traction, it knows this because the wheel speed sensors are measuring many times per second.

Then the front driveshaft sends power to the front wheels - the front torque gauge shows you how much is being sent.

It reads in kilogram/meters. So the upper end of the gauge (50 kg.m.) is over 350 ft. lbs. of torque, about as much as a Ford Focus RS

This is actually cool to know. I always figured atessa was just as arbitrary as hicas, with the driver having no idea what the fuck it's doing

I've only ever been in an r32 gtr once but it was 400wkw and it just spun all 4 wheels all the time fuck knows what that guage would have been reading

Atessa is like reverse haldex kek

All they need to do to fix haldex is turn it around.

>>17660568
Of the meme worthy 200 complaints I've had spouted at me here the oil life isn't one of them.
>>
>>17660587
One of my managers left a Chrysler dodge Jeep and ram store because he felt immoral and unethical selling those.

He said the majority of the problems came from the oil sensors which were tangentially related to how they sucked oil.

It was a pretty high volume dealership, so I trust his sample size more than yours.

That said, he was on the sales side, not service.


Maybe he got some details muddled, but those being some of the worst cars recently produced is no meme. There's a reason they were discontinued after such a short run despite such a large initial R&D investment
>>
Tach as big or bigger than the speedo, small screen on the middle or size.

I leave my screen on average MPG because instant MPG gives me too much anxiety.

Lel go say that about a rusty Dodge Ram. It's 'special' enough for you to get butthurt about, Nancy.

Did your Cobalt SS lose to a skyline in a race lately or something? Flush and bleed your vaginal fluid.

It seems to me that the "fuel range" is one of the least important functions of any info display system.

1. You already have a gas gauge
2. Range is a fictitious/unreliable number


In my opinion, it can only be helpful on road trips to hastily decide whether or not to take a bathroom break without gassing up (but we all do it anyway once we pull over, again rendering the range function useless).
>>
>>17662036
Same-fagging.

Also, the range is a dynamic figure that can change based on road/traffic conditions, temperature, elevation, power accessory use (like A/C), and spiritedness of driving style. Even if the range was accurate to some degree, it would still need to be monitored constantly.


It's like using a phone's weather app on a cool evening to decide when exactly to put your jacket on. Either you need it, or you don't.

Same with fuel level information.
>>
The only two digital displays in my car are my radio and the odo. Otherwise everything I need to know is plainly visible from gauges.

i actually took apart my cluster and pulled off the tcs off led. best decision ever.

I like the GM dashes as well, but this is much cleaner.

GM doesn't offer a large enough NAV option on the guage screen.
