No you will need to press the set/reset button, as it is taking the average consumption over the miles covered not how much fuel you have in your tank.

and no way do i drive like a gay only recently when i was trying to improve my mpg figure, my 316 is decent dont no why everyone keeps taking the pis out of them, just have to shift properly at the right time and i can keep on the tail of pretty much majority of cars out there,
