Fuel Gauge...

Post by MiniMental »

Hola,

Been a while since I’ve needed to post.

Did a 300mile journey up to Cumbria this morning and noticed half way my fuel gauge had dropped to absolute zero. But no low fuel light. It stayed there all the way here. Then did come back up when I restarted the car. But, it’s been irratic since. For example, I filled up/brimmed when I got here and it said 3/4” tank. Then half tank, then full. Etc.

Any common faults?

I’m guessing it’s likely to be the sender which I’m assuming is the Bosch unit under the rear seat?

Anywhere else I should be looking?

Cheers
Aidan
