hey peps
I have 2009 sline 1.4T (petrol)
When waiting to refuel i have my mile count down on the computer- thing is i will take it down to say 10 mils lefte before "run out" and need to fill up and the car is in theory empty but the manual petrol dial is only half way in between the 1st quarter red area showing some left to go?
The thing that im woundering is does the refill warning light stay just static yellow it get to zero on the count down and your car will conk out or does it go to zero and then start using a reserve tank and then the refill light flashes? (this is what my prev car did)
if this is the case what is the miles roughly... at mo the light comes on when i have 30miles left to empty on the count down clock and the car makes the refill bing noise...
cheers
p.s I dont fancy running it to empty to find out
