Hi guys,
Yesterday I ran out of gas completely, but the gas gauge was still at 1/4 and I had 160km (100miles) range left. Usually the range would throw me off, but I was driving very "economically" (read: slow as hell) and I didn't think nothing of it.
Filled it up and it now shows 850km (~530miles) range left, which is way too much, so obviously something is wrong with the sender unit. I've only had the car for two months so is this a common issue (like blend door actuators) or am I just unlucky? And you can't buy just the fuel sender unit, you have to buy the whole fuel pump, is that correct? OEM only or have you had any luck with cheaper options?
I own a 2014 Fiesta ST2, 90000km (~56000miles) on the clock, completely stock.
Thanks in advance!
