Don't you mean SG2 showing 0.02 GPH while EOC? Anyway, I found this thread while trying to figure out if my car (Nissan Sentra) had DFCO. I have notice that once in a while the MPG on the SG2 goes to 9999 but had not really paid attention to when it was happening. I watched it carefully and it is only while decelerating in gear. GPH goes to 0 at the same time but while EOC GPH goes to 0.02 and MPG goes to ~2800 (varies with speed.) I do know that while the engine is off and the key is on the fuel pump is running so maybe that makes the SG2 think that the fuel consumption is >0, but in DFCO the fuel pump is shut off. That is just an idea and I'm not sure how to test that, not that it really matters since I am sure that while EOC and DFCO the fuel consumption is actually 0.
