2013 Gran Cabrio - Is there a way to have both Trip A (or Trip B) and digital speed repetition visible constantly?

Hi, I've had my car a couple of months now, and put several tankfuls of VPower into it, but I've never worked out how many miles I get from a tank because the trip mileometer is hidden in a sub menu. It's not an economy thing, it's more a case of being able to optimise the frequency of fill-ups.

Is there any way to get the trip mileometer onto the display and also retain the digital speed indicator?

Never been able to manage to. I like to have miles remaining on show so I can estimate location for fill up and also see how low I can get it with the remaining fuel in the tank i.e. Half tank/100 miles etc.

I put Irish super unleaded in mine, they never had it before and it’s some sort of fudge reading the blurb made the engine knock till I used it up, never again.

I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but if I am, it's simple.
I have the digital speedo on the dash and the Tripometer on the multi-function screen (nav screen). You just cycle through by pressing the "mode" button until you see Trip A/B or MPG/miles remaining displayed on the screen.
You can then choose whether you want to look at MPG or Trip etc by rotating the right hand knob and it cycles through them.

Got to say I think you're missing the point - when the light comes on fill it up, drive and repeat!

I’ve had mine a year and it’s one of the few irritating points with the car that you seem to have to press the button to see the readout briefly.

mother minor niggle is the MPH Speedo has no KMH markings or a way to show KMH in the digital readout. I live half time in UK and half in France and it’s really irritating!

My QP5 has both on the speedo plus as I'm in Ireland I have KM/h on the screen between speedo and rev counter bottom right

You could set the digital readout to b KMH, as the speedo is in mph. However I never look at the speedo, only the digital, since any useful speeds are not marked!
