I've just got myself a Megane II and I have a question.
I can't figure it out if it is possible to reset only the part which shows how many miles you have done (since last reset) but not reset the mpg average, speed average and everything else at the same time?
I know which button resets it but it always resets all the "data".
Tnx!
Partly reseting the trip computer?

Re: Partly reseting the trip computer?
There are two trip mileage recordings - one beneath the overall mileage and the other which is linked to the MPG, gallons used, range etc.
The trip mileage figure beneath the overall mileage is separate from the MPG etc figures so you can reset that one on it's own, by pushing the normal button/stalk when the overall mileage figure is shown. I don't think you can reset the other trip mileage without resetting all the related figures too.
I've found it useful to use a Bluetooth OBDB2 connector with an app like TorquePro. This gives instanst and average MPG, the latter NOT being reset when the trip mileage is reset. Also allows you to check for error codes, log info, see additional info like turbo boost etc. Well worth a less than £10 for both!

Not sure, I bought one like this and it works fine bluetoothing to my phone, which has Torque Pro on it.

Here's the one I bought from Amazon, again this uses bluetooth connected to my Android phone running Torque Pro: https://amzn.to/2dbJvOD
