The lie-o-meter doesn't actually lie, it works on at the time averages and jumbles em up giving a figure that seldom agrees with the pump receipt.

This means when you are stuck in a jam it maybe only giving 25mpg but once on the free moving dual carriageway it's giving 55 mpg, by the time you hit the pump it's mixed them all up since the last reset and as you've seen normally about 2-5 mpg out.
