It has percentages, what does this Eco Pro potential bar do when its "full" ?

If you change any eco settings to more efficient that potential bar will increase. For example change your speed warning to 60mph instead of 75mph and "potential" will increase. Or turn off coasting and "potential" will decrease. It is meant to help you select the most efficient settings within eco pro. All bs imho!

I coded the car to start in eco mode a few days back, today i popped it into Sport to pass a few people. 3 days was my max.... The A/C just blows hot air when the engine turns off at a light lmao

I was pissed the first time it happened then thought "I'll just turn off the A/C before stopping at each light"....yeah that thought lasted about 10 seconds and even worse, the A/C will cut out while you're driving just to save? Why have A/C at all then? lol, I did the same and even when I do use ECO PRO when costing a lot, I have my foot ready to floor it as needed haha. (does take off if you floor it in ECO PRO but that defeats the purpose)
