Weird -- so they are trying the cluster before the sender? Mine intermitently works now... still haven't gone in to complain... probably will before end of next month.

Ya I thought so too. I had this issue with the M3 and it was the level sensors. I know the 350 has the same issue. I guess we'll see....

So they replaced the cluster and the problem actually got worse lol. Instead of 1 LED not lighting up after a re-fill 2 are not lighting. They are going to order the sending unit/level sensors. To make matters worse the silver trim around the multi-meter gauge on the brand new cluster has a small chip in it. I'm going to tell them it has to be replaced again...

Not clear why, but after switching to Sunoco, problem is fixed for me. Fuel gauge works perfectly again Confirmed after several fill ups now My Z doesn't like Chevron??? Why? Only other thing I can think of is that there's something screwy with the fuel temp sensor -- I could be mistaken, but I think the ECU actually takes note of that -- seem to recall that being one of the parameters that can be datalogged from the ECU.

My fuel level sensor has been acting really weird lately... it said I had 5 dots left.. and this morning I turn on the car and it says I need to fill up cause only 2 dots left. I drove it around town for about 15 minutes and shut down the car.... I turn it back on, now it says I have 4 dots left. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF?!!
G force were you able to get this fixed? |

Interesting as our 370Z has only had Chevron since it was filled for us at the dealership. I've also added a bottle of Techron to the fuel as well—zero issues.
Are you kidding? What's in Costco's gas? Dead day laborers? No way in hell I would run Costco's gas.

hrmm dont think its really anything to do with the additives. Today I was filling up gas. Should have filled up about 16+, but it stopped at 15. Sometimes you guys may think you filled it up but whatever stops the pump from pumping triggers early.
I've actually been to a gas station where the pump would stop every 4 seconds.. after about 1 gallons I moved to another pump. (thats my take on this) |
