Does anyone have this problem or could help me fix this?

I would like to try a DIY fix if possible but I would take it to the mechanics if I have to.

Does your car have any fuel in it at the moment?

Mines exactly the same. I'll have a full tank and sometimes it'll read very low or completely empty with the light on. And seriously did you guys think we were dumb enough to think we had no fuel?

Sounds like a dodgy signal/loose wire -(or dead gauge) are you good with electrics?

The best thing to do in the meantime until u get it fixed is do the below..

At least you know that you always have a full tank of fuel. Nomsayin?

There is one in south east
