Mine usually accepts around 62 Litres when the orange low fuel indicator illuminates.oneday wrote:checked my fuel tank capacty reading on the lexia it reads 42 with a full tank is this correct or should it read 60 to 65. took it to fill it up today needle just above half only managed to get 21.75 ltrs in
The most I have managed to cram in was 72 L.
Re: fuel capacity reading on lexia
it seems the fuel gauge goes down faster than it uses fuel i was wondering if the tank capacity needs to be set to 65 which is the tank capacity acording to the owners book

Re: fuel capacity reading on lexia
On many cars Lexia can be used to alter the fuel gauge readings, looks like you need to do this to make it more accurate.

Re: fuel capacity reading on lexia
I noticed that when I was playing with my lexia mine says 42 as well on C5 but I didn't want to fiddle with it just in case as I am new to lexia.
