Yup mine is also like that. I find this annoying because I always want to see my current MPG and I have to press info every time. I have not found a way to have it on by default.

you guys do know you can hold info when the key is in the on position in the ign and go into the MID menu and change what you want to display always, as well as other settings (headlight off timer, wiper intermittent settings, etc....)

one of which is what to display the average mpg and instant/range...etc.

I have the average set on the top and the instant on the bottom...

So you're saying I can make it so it is always showing without having to press info button every time?

Under stock setting (or whatever your current MID setting is), you can select a "default" start-up display; that is whenever you turn the car on, it defaults to that display. So for example I hate to see my current MPG cause that just makes me drive like a grandma, I have it set to trip time.

It should be in the user manual, or just do it like what Din9leB said.

From there, not just the display, you can set a lot of things such as auto light off (when accidentally left on), wiper speed (adapt to driving speed), trip timer reset (each start up vs. fill up), trip reset, to even how you want to unlock your doors (one click --> unlock just driver door, or unlock all four doors).

Newbie5, I think it'd be really good idea if you actually sit down one day and just read the User Manual; TSX (esp. 06-08) has a lot of nice features, but still lack in some fundamental feature (auto headlight). So it's best to understand the car before one day you get stuck with a dead battery in the middle of winter because you thought TSX's headlight is automatic.

I tried changing my settings today and I got an warning message saying "driver not recognize , changing setting impossible". Anyone seen this before?
Your remote is unlinked. Press the lock and unlock button at the same time to link it.

As for having the mid on all the time, there were numerous threads regarding this years ago. It wasn't possible then: we had to either press the info button or put the key into the ignition before closing the door. If this has changed, I wasn't aware of it. I know that at least on my car, it's not possible.
