Really? On the MKV you could move away from the directions on the MFD whilst navigation was active :/

Still can on MK VI. Can be handy to see what's on the stereo while the map is on the RNS 510. When I start looking at all the stuff in the MDI, I get in trouble from Mrs cme2c. And woe betide me if I leave it anywhere but on "range" if I've been driving the oops! her car.

Just in case the fuel gauge fails to give an indication of when the petrol is running low.

We pre traded her Honda and waited for the Golf. In the meantime she borrowed my Peugeot. One night I get home "I think your car needs petrol" get in turn it on. Yellow warning light in the fuel gauge, car computer reports 20km to empty, LOW FUEL WARNING flashing on the display, alarm going BONG! BONG!

Good job we live close to a servo.

Before cars warned you, fuel filters were regularly replaced in previous cars as they were full with all the crap from the bottom of the tank.

Except of course the fuel pickups are at the bottom of the tank so this is really an urban legend for any car with a plastic fuel tank. Look at how long fuel filters last in modern cars and often they're only changed because of the manufacturers recommendation.

No legend in a 86 Accord ( with 480,000 kms on the clock when it was written off) or a Volvo 760. I was just glad the filter for the Volvo was identical to a Magna filter.
