No, I ended up calculating fuel amount and mapping to target ID 222 (fuel amount(calculated)) in the XML file.

I did try mapping the fuel level% from the car to the fuel level calculated, but fuel amount calculated remained at zero and therefore didn’t update the range

has this problem been solved? My average fuel consumption has not been updated since the 247th update.

I don’t think so, it seems to work only on calculated fuel level.

@realdashdev I am using MAF to determine fuel level, which is giving me km/L and a reducing calculated fuel level, but range is not changing

@realdashdev the range (distance to empty) is still giving strange results after some considerable time of operation, currently showing 80 km range with 25 litres of fuel while the calculated fuel consumption is varying between 8 - 20 km/L

Hello, new here, my question is, how can I get a better idea of my actual fuel consumption? Because my car gets approximately 6-8 km/l, but the app shows 23 km/l.
