I'm thinking it'll be easier and cheaper to buy a scanguage and check fuel that way + gain about 10000 other options.

I don't own one as I don't have an OBDII port, but hopefully someone who does will confirm whether you need to reset the scan gauge everytime you fill up.[B][SIZE=4]ntp

This whole inaccurate fuel reading is bugging me at the moment as well. I know that once I hit 1,500km on the trip meter it's time to find fuel - I don't have a problem with that, but when the fuel level light comes on and then off and then on again over the course of 60km and then after it has stayed on for a while after having driven another 60km, I fill it and get only 164L into it... I would like to concentrate more on what's in front of me than whether my fuel gauge is telling the right thing or not.Stan Miko
