Wrong section. Moving to the Accord Euro section.
Depends how you drive your car. I'd say 70km in the city or up to 100km on the highway at 110km/h.

use the trip computer and see for yourself, "distance to empty" mine normally comes on around 80kms till empty, i wonder if its a calc based on average litre's per 100k'ms etc etc.

it would be quite inaccurate if you ask me...

i have some occassions that the trip computer indicates 0 kms left when i am still cruising on the hwy...:eek:

lol,

i fill up almost straight away when the light comes on, i have ran out of petrol once in my life, the 1k walk was ample time for the lesson to sink in.

I didn't know the euro has a "distance to empty" estimate. Is it only on 06+ or do all euros have it?

From memory, my 05 euro has trip A and trip B and outside temp when I press the button thing

'03-'05 do not have distance to empty...

and yes they are inaccurate... and they purposely under rate the distance remaining so you never get caught out...

ROFL me too, well it was about 4km to go.

Altho surely honda would have added some reserve below 0km for those who think they can get to the pump with 10 meters left lol
