Hello Keith, well it’s nice to hear a sensible answer ....
As a Ghibli owner I’m sure you have come across the swap over between MPG to L/100km.
I brought the car showing The average MPG but after resetting the trips to zero I am now showing L/100 km.
I’m guessing it’s a switch or two but it’s Beating me...
MPH to KMH for the speedo is easy to change but even my sat Nav is in KM.
Although it isn’t hard to work out I would like my miles per gallon back on the screen, as its like a driving companion that I somehow always have a fixation too ....
In my mates Bentley it’s like “ how many MPG do you get” he says he don’t know and don’t care, and that upsets me .. lol ...
Please help get me back to the real world Keith.......
Thanks
Col

Not come across that. You mentioned you can change the speed from KMH to MPH. I can’t see any mention in the handbook on how to change the other values. I’m thinking you may have to make a dealer visit in order to reset, or you could try the reset I use when something odd happens - disconnect the battery, there is a quick release on the black terminal. This usually sorts most things out for me.
If you do be sure to follow the handbook instructions for reconnecting, and don’t open or close any doors when it’s disconnected as the window drop function won’t work.
By the way there is also a phone app you can get by completing your car details, which gives you access to amongst other things all the handbook literature.
Sorry can’t be of more help...

Ok , well thanks for that .... !! No one seems to know ....
Could try the reset , what’s the worst that could happen???
Is there not a Maserati technical hot line that anyone can call ... I’m guessing you phone MASERATI and they say “ bring it down and we will take a look “ they won’t like to give away the quick fix dark secrets !!!
Thanks

Open your wallet and blow away the dust...once Maserati are satisfied by the burgeoning of cash notes on display, their world will suddenly become your oyster! :p

Ha ha, yes well my sentiments exactly, but I thought some one out there or 10 have experienced this swap over, and there would be a 1 min technical bulletin on the subject..!
I know a few guys have had to drive with interior lights on because they had the dimming dial turned up to full which stops the interior lights from dimming off ...... That kind of thing ..... Sure someone will appreciate that information.....

Thanks

Great.
What's the app called and where do I find it? Can't see it in Google Play.
