odometer

On the odometer screen(with MPG, MPH) there are 2 odometers with the same reading, except one has a decimal place. Is the top odometer supposed to be a trip counter? Anyone knows how to reset it? Design feature? Bug?

Yeah - the one that shows decimals is the trip odometer. This is not a bug or anything

There are actually 2 trip meters. To reset push the "trip/reset" switch on the left bottom of the cluster for about 1 to 2 secs.
Pressing & releasing it quickly would switch between 2 trip meters.

See your owner's manual Pg: 2-7

are you referring to the "other" screen with the stop watch timer and trip mileage counter? I was talking about the screen with MPG, MPH and 2 odometer counters all in 1 screen.

when you reset, only the MPG and MPH resets, while the bottom 2 odometers stay the same. It would be nice if the upper odometer is the trip counter, no point having 2 odometers saying the same thing on 1 screen.

I'm talking about the small LCD screen in between the Tach and the speedo.
The "red screen".

This is where the "real odometer" is.

btw, you probably mis-read my post ... the upper one (with decimals) is the trip meter.
Probably you never reset it since you got the car - hence the 2 numbers are very close -- reset it and you'll have 2 sets of numbers

On my display it will show the fuel efficiency or the outside temperature, but not both at the same time. That picture was from the Infinti website.

If this had been a pic from your car, you would have the only X with the 6MT

btw, yeah you can choose what information to see in the middle (where it says outside temp) --there a few options -- but only one will be shown at any time.
