The UG does NOT support battery volts or oil PSI because the Rover ECU does not receive this info.
It can only show info it is given.

It fluctuates that way to help the catalyst burn off the excess hydrocarbons and excess fuel by providing extra O2.

If you voltage doesn't fluctuate much expect an engine code soon.

BTW there are 7 pages available so you definitely have lots of permutations possible.
Couldn't find oil pressure though. Still playing with mine, only 1 week old.
The bank 1 sensor 1&2 are the precatalytic converter O2 sensors, right?
if so should I be getting similar numbers at constant speed for both, the reason why I am asking is that the Bank1 #1 sensor output is all over the place, even at a constant speed, where as the bank1 #2 sensor is more consistent. It does move up and down but not as eratic as the #1. I don't have any codes, but I used to get O2 sensor codes and misfire codes after an engine power wash.

Bank 1, sensor 1 is precat driver side.
Bank 1, sensor 2 is postcar driver side.
Bank 2, sensor 1 is precat pass.. side.
Bank 2, sensor 2 is postcat pass side.

Your postcat will be more stable than the precatalytic.

Your postcat indicates the efficiency of you catalytic converter among other things.

Your O2 readings are supposed to be all over the place, pre-cat that is.
Post cat is supposed to be pretty steady.

Thank you EVN137 and Spike, I will adjust the screen to show Bank 1 #1 and Bank 2 #1.
And the open loop does close when I wait a little longer for the engine to warm up. I am averaging about 14.7 now, will see at next fill up if accurate.

Sucks to be you.

I'm sure there is a MPG app for the Droid, find one that looks good to you and try it, if you dont like it try another.
I only use free apps, except Tetris, I gladly paid for that one.

I am not sure if you are any better off with iphone, everything propriarity
Androids privacy policy truely sucks, most apps now have access to every thing on your phone, including recording. I am not sure how it is with iPhone, I have an ipad and after the cloud came out, I quit synching it. I have may be 20Gg worth of stuff in there and it is trying to push it to cloud, took for ever but still didn't work and there is really no option to not sych some of the apps, even though the interface might make you believe that you can do it.

There are no privacy issues with the iphone nor are there any virus's'.
I use the icloud.
When my 2nd iphone went bad, the bluetooth on it went bad, while in the Apple store I backed up to the cloud, they gave my my new phone, I restored from the cloud while in store, new phone was just like nothing had ever happened.
New phone was exactly like the old phone, ring tones, contacts, pics...same-same, and the swap was 100% free.
One thing I really like about the iphone is that when I upgraded to the 4 I did not need to buy a new car charger, did not need to buy new apps, nothing.
Everything swapped over, while the phone is not perfect, it just works, each and every time.
Pics are great, video's are great...it works each and everytime.
My first iphone lasted 2 years, and still works, my son gets a new Driod every 6 months or so because they all have to many issues or get virus's.
I do like the larger screen of the Droids.
