Does the idle drop or stay the same? Of course aircon is a much larger load than just headlights but it might indicate if your engine computer is automatically compensating or not. -- Clem

It then displays the exact mpg (L/Hr, Km per kilojoule or whatever) that's it's been told to display too. But it doesn't have any idea what a litre actually is and it certainly doean't have any ability to actually measure one! -- Clem
