Took me ages to work out but I knew there was something like that because you can see how much each journey has cost you.

Nice one, thanks for that info. :slayer:
Saw the details of individual journeys when I first started using it, then the display switched to a different view after a few days and I didn't have the intelligence to figure out how to go back to the original display!

RPM data inaccurate
I have a sport 150mjet, when I go to driving tips and look at gear changes, it states my average rpm when changing into 6 gear is 3000 rpm. This is completey wrong, This means i would be doing 85 mph before changing into 6.(tried it) Normally i only travel 70-75ish in 6th gear. Has anyone else got this issue.
I have also noticed that when you set up your profile, all the others diesel options state multijet, the 150 says 150hp. diesel ????

Re: RPM data inaccurate
I've been running EcoDrive for a bit now and as long as I don't boot the car I'm scoring about 74-78 - which I'm figuring isn't bad (although yesterday afternoon's 3.1 mile drive scored me 91!) but looking at the lessons, it suggests changing up very early - no real issue but it also says to watch the instant consumption to get an idea...if I change when it suggests, my consumption goes right down (by t least 15mpg...so how is that economical? I reckon given that the car is a TJet, this EcoDrive isn't that great an idea for it as the engine does need worked every now and again...so I'm going to be aiming for a max of 75 and use the tips throughout my driving but not try to live by them completely!

Re: RPM data inaccurate
I'm fearful of what my memory stick will reveal when I finally download it tonight.

Getting better
Well over 60 average.

I don't. I either get too many gear changes or acceleration too quick.
Did you follow the suggested revs when you change gears? I got two handy tips:1.Avoid revving too high. 2. Don't rest your foot on the clutch.
I understand the tip1, but no idea about tip2 beacuse I have no this habit
No, I still drive it like I stole it
Maybe the clutch operation switch on the pedal is too sensitive?

My Ecorive has stopped working - I've got about 2 weeks worth of data to download from the USB stick...plug the stick into the PC and it detects it and gives me a list of options...I cancel that and start up EcoDrive...previously it would detect the stick and download the data...now it does nothing...doesn't detect anything and therefore doesn't update...anyone else suffered this and if so, how did you fix it?
Cheers.

just found this while trawling through old threads
I must give it a go to see how bad the wife scores - only averaging 42 mpg since we got it and only that increased to 49mpg when driving over to the west of Ireland and back keeping below 70mph the whole time.

It works!!!
I was doing a check on the data files and one had an obscure character that the system didn't like when I tried copying it...deleted that 1 file and WOOSH! data now updated and my Eco score is 71 (but had dropped to 48!)

The suggested RPM to change into 6th gear (dynamic eco) seems way too low, ~1300RPM IIRC. That may be the RPM (at ~55MPH) once you've dropped into 6th, but I think it'd be very difficult to change 5th-6th at that RPM without stalling.
I downloaded my first set of eco data last night and scored ~75.
