Okay, just a quick question about the center info panel on the instrument cluster. If you press the left button 4 times it takes you to this. (Photo included as reference). What is this center item referring to? It says 156 currently. Thanks

That looks like engine temperature. The center information panel on the instrument cluster is typically used to display various vehicle information and settings. Pressing the left button four times can indeed cycle through different information screens. This functionality allows the driver to access and view different types of information, such as trip details, fuel economy, maintenance intervals, and other vehicle settings or alerts.

Well, I could be wrong but I don't believe it's temperature. Because the car is totally warmed up and it now says 144.

It might not be the engine temperature. Is this a Euro Car? If you keep hitting the button, does it say anything else? These might be manufacturer set up prompts.

Well, it's a pzev model manufactured in Mexico and was originally in California. If you hit the button a fifth time it goes back to the home screen. Today it's at 143 and the bottom number is 400.

Does the number get lower with the fuel level gauge?

Well, it goes slower than the fuel gauge. I'm starting to think it's possibly a daily counter for oil change and the bottom counter is miles for the oil change. The only other thing I could think of would be routine maintenance countdown?

Possibly, it does have a clock type symbol with it. You could call a dealership and they would know right away or could look it up in their OEM service info. That seems a logical answer though.
