Any no how much petrol will be left in reserve tank after just hitting 0 miles on clock? Want to use up all! the 95ron that's in my tank. Just hit 0miles now and abit worried lol
 
Seems a bit risky, you don't want to go dragging any sediment at the bottom of the tank in to the fuel system. I would fill up asap!

Err.. I think you will be totally fine if you fill up with super at zero miles!
 
The car is brand new done 160miles now so surely won't be ***** in tank?

Seen guys getting 30 more miles in there audi after hitting 0 may just drive for 5 miles to be safe

Just because it's new, doesn't mean you won't drag anything in to the fuel system. I usually fill up with decent branded fuel and once got caught out on my motorbike and had to fill up at a Morrison's. I got about half a mile down the road and it started coughing and spluttering like mad, and wasn't the same until I cleaned out the fuel filter and injectors etc. I can only assume there was some crud in the petrol I put in. It doesn't take much to clog them up, I wouldn't risk it!
 
The myth bout ring the tank low and dragging crud through is just that nonsense.
The tank pump and filter sit on the bottom of the tank it always sucks from the bottom or lowest bit of the tank. So would always suck the **** from the tank

ECU adjusts progressively, so what's the value in running it so dry?
