Low Gas Warning?

1207 Views 10 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  KunoMochi
Hello there.

I have had my gas range be as low as 30km (18miles) and there does not seem to be a Low gas warning light or message anywhere. Have you seen one in yours? My previous car would switch from displaying a km range to saying "Low range" when it would be around 50 km of range.

I dont usually let it go that low, but the couple of times that it has I see no warning.

For me, it usually comes on at around 50 miles of range left. I try not to let my tank go less than that if I can for a refill.

If it doesn't come on when it goes down to 18 miles, you may want to have it looked at. My previous car usually came on at around 20 miles

Mine yelled at me that fuel was low when I was less than 10 miles. It would display the Fuel Pump symbol on the cluster and infotainment. I dont remember when it actually started displaying the symbol. That was the 1 time for testing back in May. Haven't ran below 1/4 tank since

I get a little orange gas pump icon at the half way mark of the fuel gauge and on the 10.25 screen I get a message saying " low fuel, search for nearby gas station?" At this point I had 25kms to empty.

I have the all digital display and it usually has the gas pump symbol show on white, and when fuel goes low it turns yellow, but it is very subtle. Easy to miss for me. It should have a bell or a chime sound or a more visible warning.

Mine beeps on the cluster and infotainment. Then asks if I would like to find the nearest station. Does yours not do that?

Will try to run it a bit lower to see if I get to that beep and notification.

Not sure about the all digital dash but us owners in the States has a low fuel chime and indicator pop up on the instrument cluster screen. I just fueled up not long ago before it reached that point so I can't take a pic of the indication for a while. lol
