GTRFAN you were correct... =(

I hate nissan so much right now...

So did you have one sender replaced like Yutzi and now the issue is back? Hmm yeah it looks more like Blackburn were right about some part in the cluster... I'll find out exactly what they said it was. I think both senders in the tank send an electronic signal to the cluster and the electronics interprets both signals and displays the LED and the average fuel, etc.

I really don't want to have my cluster swapped out as the Odometer gets reset and can't be changed. Initially that seems like a free clock wind back, but when it comes time to sell the logs books wont match and it'll look really dodgy even though it's not.

Let me call Nissan and get all the details and then I'll demand a free set of 19" for compensation.

AHAHAH free set of 19"s would be adequate compensation =)

I have a 10k service coming up, i guess I'll take it in to Nissan, and get them to re-fix the hatch springs, look at the senders and do the damn service at a rip-off price... =( The time saving of going to the one place outweighes servicing it else where at the moment. I never had the senders changed up til this point, i got the last light back via techron and 98 octane fuel... but it was only a bandaid fix to a component issue it seems.

If they say they have to reinstall the cluster i'm going to say no thanks...

Yutzi

Not good to hear that the issue hasnt gone away. Ill be keeping a close eye on my fuel guage. I done about 3K since the replacing of the senders and still no problem.
Wont be happy if the issue comes back.

If the issue comes back I'd support you in a plan to severely hurt Nissan Execs... such a basic thing and they **** it up... This is something Hyundai and Proton can do correctly you know? even Tata have fuel guages that work...
