Results are in. I'm intrigued.
I turned off the display, and beat the crap out of the car for almost 2 weeks.
4.6 l/100km (51 mpg), and 888 km (552 miles) when the last pip began to blink. I didn't bother running down the tank, and decided to fill up right away. I'm sure I could've drove another 50-70 km easy. If you guys recall, my last tank the last pip started blinking at 922 km. This is not a big difference!
I'm stoked! This car just gets awesome mileage no matter what! I now have the fuel consumption display off full time. I'm not going to bother
trying to get the best mileage...I'm just going to drive it and enjoy it!
