  1. vanshaj, the cruising limit indicator is not an actual limit. it is an estimate according to your driving habit of that tank of gas you used. The estimated MPG and cruising limit is completely inaccurate. To find your actual gas mileage, use your trip computer A and B. Set one of them to zero right after you fill up your tank, pressing down on the trip button will reset it. Then drive around and when you fill up again, use this equation.

    (Total miles driven with the tank of gas) / (total amount of gas you just put in) = your MPG for that tank of gas

    Example, I have a 2005 RX 330 and i drove 260 miles before i filled up. When i filled up at the gas station it took about 14.5 gallons. This means i drove 260 miles with 14.5 gallons. so the equation is (260 miles)/(14.5 gallons) = 17.93 MPG. My MPG was low because it was 90% city driving and 10% highway.

    I hope my explanation helped. Again the cruising limit is just an estimate based on your driving habit during that tank of gas.

    Your shift gear may have set to 4. Try setting it to D.
