Hi everyone,

posting this in general, even though I’m a UK member.
my ‘17 GT has done something a little weird?? There was I merrily driving along today and the low fuel warning came up saying I have only 75 miles left to empty.
trouble is the gauge is reading 3/4 full??

is this a common issue with an easy fix? I’m not taking it to the dealer so a home fix would be much appreciated if there is one?

Well, I did just that and it has reset thanks. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

The dash then changed to 175 miles to empty rather than 75 like it said previously?? Took her for a 50 mile drive, steady and averaged 22.5mpg.. dash now reads 98 miles to empty??

Now I know these figures are never very accurate on cars, but this is a bloody joke!! Still, at least the warning light stayed off.
