FYI. There are two fuel level sensor, one on each side of the tank. I wonder if that is part of the problem?

Haven't really paid any attention to that. However, the kilometers to empty still indicates around 80 when the warning pops up. I did notice that now it seems to take longer before the first two LEDs go out, much quicker than the next two.

Just got the z today. At first they said next week thursday I was like wtf i drop the car monday but later in the afternoob got my car back. They said they replace the fuel sender both of them and the problem was the thing holding the fuel sender was long and it was getting stuck somewhere so they installed the new sender which is shorter. They said this is a known problem but not much ppl come in to get it fix so thats why there is no recall yet. But they said the recall should come in soon for the senders. Im just glad I got my car back before I leave for iraq. Didnt want to have my brother pick up my car at the dealer dont know where u would take it lol.

BTW . . . Now when the gas pump automatically clicks off all the LED's are lit. Before the repair the full LED was never lit unless I almost ran the tank over by adding more gas. Last edited by antbear; 10-05-2011 at 09:54 AM. |

I get this problem sporadically with it showing 1 dot empty after a fill up. Happens only maybe every three or four fill ups. It hasn't ever bothered me enough to bring it in. Overall has everyone mostly had success after bringing it in to the dealer?

Hand my fuel sender replaced and all lights light up on a fill up, also instead of the first dot (far right) lasting 60-80 miles, it went out at 32 this morning which I am hoping means a more accurate measurement.

That alone makes me want to schedule an appointment down at the service department to get it fixed.

"Overall has everyone mostly had success after bringing it in to the dealer?"
After reading the posts the decision to have my sending units replaced under warranty was a no brainer. |
