I've done three fill ups now in my new T. The problem is even though the gauge has said its empty and the range showing between 0 - 20km left, the most I've been able to get into the tank has been 48 litres.

I've filled the tank to almost overflowing each time. Consumption is about 16 l / 100 km around town so that's about right.

Looks like I've got a dodgy fuel gauge - I'm not game enough to keep running with the range on zero just to find out if I'm right

anyone else with the same issue???

Picked up FG XR6T ute today, on the 150k trip home the Inst fuel ranged from 9-9.5L/100 at 110kph. Pretty happy with that for a car with 0ks on it.

Push the pedal down and gets over 30L/100 pretty quick.

My trip computer says 13.8, but the figure is actually 12.5 which im pretty happy about considering I only picked it up a few weeks ago and I do get a little excited when I drive it.

Excited like a pubescent teenager that’s just found his......actually no it’s still the same :crybaby:

buy a ute, bigger fuel tank means you get more k's, therefore makes you feel better. that's my backward thinking anyway.........

Works for me, except for the bit where it costs you more to fill up :outahere:
