OK, so I've had my Avant a week now and I'm loving it!
The one thing I've found pretty disturbing is that the fuel gauge seems t have a mind of its own. I left home with 1/4 tank showing on the gauge and 100 MTE.
I sat in traffic because of an accident and the gauge stayed put and my MTE went up to 145, which is fair enough and what i'd expect.
I then pulled off the motorway leaving the crawling traffic, drove for 1/2 a mile and just as i pulled into my work carpark, the fuel warning light popped up. the fule gauge suddenly then read empty and 5MTE!!!
Now I've read a hell of a lot of posts about this on various forums, but i'm still yet to come across a definitive answer as to what causes it. which is odd as it seems so common.
Does anyone know if there is a confirmed root cause for this issue? seems a very "un-Audi-like" problem...
Thanks.
