Fuel Gauge

MrZ · 01-06-2012, 05:27 PM

Does anyone else have this problem? My fuel gauge the last dot under the F lights up sometimes when i fill it and sometimes it wont. Even when I put so mu fuel in that it is coming back out. Does this mean i will have to replace my whole gauge cluster?

had the same on mine, there's been other threads about it... if I remember correctly this is a problem on 09's, but could be wrong.

You can try adding techron fuel addtive. Some said it helps cleaning the fuel sending units in the tank.

Fuel Gauge Not Lighting All The Way UP

ok, im bringing this thread back from the dead. Does the dealer cover the replacement on it? Same symptoms here. I try to get 400 miles out of my tank of fuel since commute is 50 miles on way. So I tend to stuff it over after it clicks. Normally I can get 1.1-1.35 gallons and im off to work. I can hit 400 with almost a quarter depending on how hard i am on the throttle. But the very fullest led light does not light.
