Unlikely a re-cal will help. Doesn't sound read like the thing lost its calibration but that it... MarcW - Sunday, 3 June, 2012, at 5:51:46 pm |

During my last two refuelings, the fuel gauge in my '06 rises to 7/8 although I have completely filled the tank. At first, I thought
I had misjudged the gas pump cutoff, but on a subsequent refueling, I had the same experience.
Curiously, my miles-to-empty indicator seems to reset completely... but I don't really know since I never studied the miles-to-empty readout before.
Cruising around the Internet, I see a lot of reports of recalibrating the fuel gauge sending unit or restraining the wires around the sending unit inside the tank.
Does anybody here have any advice for me before I visit my independent mechanic? It's time for my 30K service and I guess this just adds to my bill...
