this is the third time this has happened.

ran the car low on fuel, so low the needle doesnt move off the stop and the miles to empty is - -. i then fill it up and im expecting it to be bone dry (like the stilo used to be) but im only getting about 45/46 litres into it. Theres still 10 litres hiding somewhere.

Also my mileage was at just under 400, where it should be for a tjet 150 on fumes.
i even tried going past the click and it was def full as i got it on my hush puppies.

anyone else found this?
 
The maximum I have ever put in was about 50L. I have thought of getting a 5L reserve in the boot and just running it dry to see how much km/milage i would get when everything said 0.

I have just filled up 10mins ago.

I got 53litres in and it was half way between empty and 1/8 full when I filled up.

That's what I get on most fill ups. Usually about 50-52litres when it's on or just below the 1/8 full mark.
