Gen 2 fuel bar guage!!
« on: 16 August 2018, 10:10:04 am »
Well I have notived something odd or faulty!?!?
Filled my 06 to the brim the other day, reset the trip. I have done just iver 40 miles and allready down to 3 bars in the digital guage?!
Is this normal or a known problem or what!? I'm confused 🤔🤔

No that sounds about normal haha mine only get around 100miles to a full tank.
The fuel gauge is a little slow though so give it a mile or so before it gives a true reading

Just keep feeding the beast fuel and enjoy, you don't buy a FZ1 gen2 if your worried about MPG it's  the smiles per miles that count.
