2008 roadster..how do you see mpg miles to empty?

The right just cluster just shows the speed. I push read message and shows no messages?

I see pictures that displays mpg and other info. How do i get to it? Is it 2009+ only?

Again i have a 2008 roadster.

Dealer did not have manual

If someone has a pdf i would appreciate a copy!

I have an 08 roadster, let me check the manual. I know it will show MPG left when you get below 50 miles.

Yes I have that as well. But on the right cluster does it only show the speed that you are going? Essentially all I have is Trip left mileage left and current speed right. Does anything change?

Right cluster shows speed, but when you go below 50 miles left, the speed readout is replaced with the message about MPG left, no speed readout. Same happens with a CEL, etc...

Never tried, I guess I look at the fuel gauge and if the car starts and the yellow light is not on, I hit the gas, really hard!

On my '07 there is a button on the directional stick. It cycles through Speed, MPG, Miles to Empty, Average Speed, etc. Is it different on the '08?

I'll try it out later today. Thanks so much! I was getting concerned that a $140k car wouldn't show any other data!
