Earlier today I went ahead and filled up one more time and the gauge showed the same result. One less ball from full. I ALWAYS fill up with 91 Octane and I ALWAYS get it from Shell. I know I am getting good gas. I am starting to get irritated on my vehicle. I never had so much trouble with a sportscar before ESPECIALLY when it's only 3 months old. Any feedback is highly appreciated. Should I just go to the dealership and start asking for replacements?

It happened to the other day as well but while fuelling I didnt switch off the engine but when i got home, parked the car and letter that day i started the engine again, it went up full on the gauge again. I have no idea but i guessed it reset itself maybe.....

Yeah that's right. Our Z tends to do that when you fuel while the engine's still on. But mine is a completely different story. I'm just waiting for a couple more fill ups with Chevron w/ Techron and see if that solves the problem. If everything else fails. I go to the dealer.
