don't worry about it & select another function ..... outside air temp is what's noramlly showing on mine ... less depressing than fuel consumption  ;)  ;)  ;)

is it in park or neutral.
mine shows 0.2 when in neut or park and 0.3 when idling in drive due to torque converter drag. just a thought.

sorry to sound daft but have you checked the air filter. cleaned the vacuum hoses etc.
could be a blockage.  ;)
