    How does this affect the trip computer 'distance to empty'? Is there a way to reprogramme the computer to take into account the additional capacity? Do the overseas models have different sized tanks?

    Thanks.
    It no longer is correct.

    The overseas models have only one tank as spare is mounted where our second tank is.

    No companies I know have been able to reprogramme computer.

        Cheapest and smartest way around this little issue is to use a Scangauge and programme the fuel capacity into it. Then once it learns (after a few tanks) you will. Have reasonable accurate 'distance to empty' readings.

          Does yours work? I programmed mine religiously for a couple of months (about 15 tanks) and it was still off by 20 odd litres every time.

            It might depend on with model SGII u have.... I've got mine set to a 40% difference and it works great, it's about 95+% accurate. The later one with the latest version 4.12 software will not allow u to adjust for any errors past 20% I think.... or there abouts.

                That's why I didn't bother paying the $$ to update to the latest software, as this is the main feature that I use on the SGII. I don't know why they actually put a limit in it for..... can't see the point
