If you weren't being towed then i reckon that you just reset the trip computer whilst coasting down a hill or something.

Nice spot, which is why i was indeed being towed :sad: Didn't think it gave a reading whilst not running? although i've never tried rolling down a hill with the engine off :lipsrsealed:

Temp dial went into red and warning light saying stop check coolant!! Checked coolant and was up to level so left engine off and got it towed to garage for water pump/cam belt and thermostat change, hopfully no engine damage :undecided:
