Title: Fuel Gauge - MK3 Golf GTI
Post by: Bagel2003 on 05 September 2003, 15:28
Hi,

Anyone have a fuel gauge that sticks and the needle is erratic ?

It's not the end of the world but would be good to cure a some stage.

Maybe a dodgy sender unit in the fuel tank?

When I've nearly run out of petrol and I fill the tank right up. Mine doesn't always show that the tanks full and it doesn't show the correct reading for a couple of days.

Mine sometimes drops from half to reserve. Had the sender replaced and it makes no difference so more than likely something in the dash.
