I don't have the gph display, only the mpg and mph so I can easily calculate it. What I remarked is that the mpg display decreases more or less quickly depending on the temperatures, but also the consumption when I change to neutral. If I was accelerating quickly then it takes a lot of time to decrease to the stable idle consumption.
Now when I put in neutral while I was in engine break (DFCO) then the consumption increases to the stable idle consumption. I'm wondering if the strategy can save gas, but I doubt about it as you have to accelerate to a greater speed and loose noticeable speed during the 2 seconds of engine break needed to reach DFCO.
