Anyone know how the range is calculated. Only ask because i fulled up with unleaded and it gave me a range of 397 Miles. When I'd got through half a tank I fulled up again, this time with super, and now the range is 360.

the computer works it out from information it records over time from your driving style and consumption figures
each time you refuel it will reset and give you a new figure based on previous data
I used to have an Astra twintop and if you fueled up with Super it would recalculate the figure as you drove so you would actually see the range increase for a while as the super got into the engine and your potential MPG increased not sure if the Seat does this or only on a refuel

PS I would let your tank get empty before filling up with Super you will get much better results from it ;)
