Hi, My center screen seems possesed, at first the fuel range changed from miles to kilometers by itself, scrolling through the ptions it wont let me change it, now the fuel range has gone and in its place is MPG with numbers changing as you drive, when you stop its just a series of dashes until you move off then the numbers come back up, I presume it is supposed to show how many mpg you are doing suited to your driving style, this feature isn't in the handbook, hmmm ???:/

When you say scrolling through the options what do you mean exactly? Using the button on the right had washer stalk? or using the buttons on the screen display?

Hi, No only on the buttons either side of the screen, didn't know about the stalk next to the wiper stalk, thought that was just for the radio/cd:/

Try using the end button on your RH stalk

The right hand stalk is the one that you operate your wipers with, not the radio control!
There is a button on the end of your wiper stalk. This is used to scroll one by one through the different functions on your display.
Don't you have your owner's manual to refer to?
