What makes you think the computer is not accurate? This makes no sense...

If the computer in my car says it used 12.8 gallons since the last fill-up, that's exactly what it will take when I pump gas into it. And whatever it says the mpg is, it's always exactly correct. I checked it a couple times early on because it was the first car I ever had that calculated those things, but I stopped checking when I realized it was never off at all. Those calculations are child's play for computers.
