My Multipla will be three years old at the end of this month, and we have just started to notice that we don't get the FUEL REQUIRED message until we only have about 40miles left in the tank.

My misses is certain that as soon as the amber dash light was illumunated, the trip computer would "beep" and display "FUEL REQUIRED" - it would also display this message each time you started the car up. When you were on low fuel.

Can other members confirm that this is the case. I've got the car booked in for this Thursday, but when I spoke with them (fiat garage) before they very a little vague, and didn't know that the car had such a feature.

With the warranty expiring in a few days I want to make sure everything is ok.

No you get the amber light at about the 10 litre mark. The beep and "Fuel Required" comes in at around the 3 litre mark (this is just guesswork based my milage on the past). Finally if you carry on the Range disappears altogether and you get a "REFUEL NOW" warning which can be quite worrying. That said, I've never actually ran out and still been able to drive a few miles to the garage.

Anyway, the amber light comes on a long time before any beeps and text warnings on the dash.
