I read about that on here actually a few months ago. I tried it on my friends brand new Focus. It worked, but he wasn't too happy when he learnt I hadn't tried it before and was his brand new car was being used as a ginea pig!
There's a hell of a lot of diagnostics you can go through: temp readings, rpm, speed... and that's just the ones I can understand :-)

Before I try it, how do you get it back to normal?

You can just go through all the diagnostics until you get back to the trip (which will now read 0.0) or just restart.

Hi
When you say the Fiesta, which one ?, as i have one of the last Mk4's with the Mk5 facelift, will this hidden function with my car do you know?
Pastyman...

It may well do, I doubt you'll do any harm. I tried it on my '89 escort, but all it did was reset the trip :-(
