I don't take the reading seriously, but I do use it as an indicator. Working for a Ford dealer, many cars we receive are low on gas and when I see 15mi or less remaining I generally put them aside to get filled. However I do know that you can still go a good distance when it says 0mi till empty, I know of several that have been driven around the lot, through service, and still made it the 1.5mi to the gas station while saying 0mi.
Accuracy of Km/Miles till Empty readout?
Pulled into the servo last night, LCD Display reading 49Km (30miles) till empty.
Been doing city traffic driving all week. Gauge was sitting off empty at the 1/8 mark
Now according to all official documents, the ST has a 48L fuel tank... And I managed to fit 47.5L before the pump went 'click'. Methinks I wouldn't be able to do that last 49Km on just half a Liter of motion-lotion.
Anyone else found the Distance to Empty figures... optimistic?
