Odd fuel gauge problem
2006 2.5T petrol MY. Over the last few weeks I have noticed that my fuel gauge was reading zero - with NO red light showing. The mileage "computers" were all showing __.__. All other gauges were behaving normally. After I stopped and came back and restarted - it was reading normally again. I filled up at the weekend and all was fine. I have just been out and it was again reading zero until I stopped, switched off the ignition and restarted - where it went straight up to full.
I cant find much on here relating to this. Anyone any thoughts on where to look - sticky fuel sender (seems unlikely) electrical glitch (more likely?) but where to look. Would VIDA be helpful ? I am not too concerned about it at this stage but would rather know whats causing it and how to fix it. |
I'm picking bad solder joints in the instrument cluster

VIDA is your next port of call. then...
Get you car into the fault condition and then a) do a gauge sweep to test the gauge itself b) measure the tank content c) check the fuel level sender (I think...) |
Did you solve this one? my brother-in-law has the same issue on his 2.5T
