can someone help me. This morning i put some fuel in my car and the display was showing 60 miles. i then parked the car a little inclined on a speed hump. when i came back 3 hours later the miles said 20 and its been like that since.

is there fuel in the car or should i trust the display and fill it up. cant understand where the fuels gone, dont know if theres a leak, coz i cant smell any fuel.

can anyone help

:)

It does that when you park facing up on a hill. With so little fuel left in it it's unlikely to go back up to 60 again. Why do you need to let it go to zero? Just fill it up!

thanks for your help mate, just was wondering if there was a leak or something coz the fuel consumption is really bad as well

Ive had a similar thing too, if you go to the station and drop a bit more fuel in it will correct itself automatically and give you the correct fuel allowance.

Thanks Chris, you was absolutely right, put some more fuel in it and it has rest to the right miles on display.

thanks mate
