Hey guys,
I've had my G for a little over three months now and I've never gone below the 1/4 mark on my gas tank (it's just a habit, haha)

However, this week I went pretty low on the gas meter, and I was wondering when does your gas light come on? On my previous cars, the light would come on just below the 1/4 mark.

Here's a picture.


Thanks!

 

My gas light comes on about 1/2 way between the 1/4 mark and E. Usually at about 375 miles.

 

Same except I'm usually at 280 miles haha

 

Never had mine come on! Haha. Lowest I've had the gauge go is about 1/3 of the way down past the 1/4 line. I don't like to let my cars get to low... you can cause problems running your tank almost bone dry.

 

When the light comes on there's 4 gallons left. But yea, obviously don't let it run bone dry! You'd be the guy on the interstate pouring a gallon of gas in your tank lol

 

First time that I filled up car, the fuel light came on when the needle was just over the 1/4 mark. Since I had the dealership change out the sensor in the tank the light never comes on anymore and I always fill up no less than half of the 1/4 mark

EDIT: Just curious from the pic, I see that trip meter is at 244 miles. I hope that wasn't from a full tank fill up.

 

Haha, it wasn't. I was seeing how far it was from my house to my friend's house one day so I reset it. If I remember correctly it was a couple days after I filled up.

Went to the gas station today....

 

Gas light came on one mile later

 

Damn... you really pushed that thing low. I think we have a 20.5 gallon tank, so it's kinda funny thinking that you could have still probably driven another 40 or 50 miles before you completely ran out of gas (since you put in 18.2 gallons).

 

LOL. That's about what I put in at every fill up. Pushing it would be pumping 19 gallons in.

 

My light comes on around that final little mark. I usually let it go under the E, just 'cause I know it can >___> I also rarely fill all the way up; It's kind of stupid/silly, but I don't fill it full to save weight (and thus gas) lmao.

Edit: NOT UNDER THE E hahaahhah. Under the final mark.

 

wow I only get like 240 miles off a full tank when my light goes on :/ like everytime no matter how I drive....I drive 90% city tho.

 

Yeah I am usually around 18.4 when I fill up and that driving with my light on.. I think it must come on when u have like 3 - 3.4 gallons left.

 

my light comes on about the same, just about 1 tick past the 1/4 mark. usually ive gone about 320-340 miles, i average 23 mpg no matter how i drive

 

it's usually around 300km when my light comes on. I've estimated that I can go another 100km before it's totally empty (not that I would let that happen).
