well in the manaual it says 7 litres remainin when the low fuel light comes on, ive only seen it come on once and i was making my way to the servo anyway, only 500 metres from it and it came on, LOL

Frankie, so your fuel economy is calculated as

35/285 = 12.30

12.3l/100

i think you have a fuel leak somewhere!

thats like Holden Commodore numbers!
