have just used FORScan to change 80 ltr tank to 140 ltr tank in FORScan- PX2 XLT auto 3.6. 2015 (still Learning)
For some reason the Klms to empty now reads 1600 plus. Bought the vehicle second hand, with larger tank fitted. Specs were 80 ltr tank. Is there something else that could have been changed previously to now make the Klms to empty read double? Mind you would be nice, around 8 ltrs /hundred .

That figure will constantly change while you drive, it never stops calibrating.
If you start towing or sit at highway speeds it will soon drop.
Now that you have changed it, the fuel gauge won't move off full until you have done 200 to 300 klms, maybe more.

Thanks for the info. Happy to hear it. Also very happy, I managed to get rid of those blasted door chimes.

Ah Ha!!. Thanks for that RossPat. I changed mine a month or so back and wondered why it didnt move off the full quickly.
