low fuel warning indicator
hi all..
does anyone have this problem.. i've been noticing that the low fuel warning light comes on when there's still 2 notches before E..
kinda odd that it gives the warning so soon..
thanks..

Same here..... I guess earlier rather than later is better. However, I don't like that while the low fuel light is on, you cannot use your display to watch your consumption or distance to empty. That part sucks!

Are you saying that if you clear the low fuel warning with the OK button you still can not see some items on the speedo display? I'll have to check that next time the warning is displayed.

Keep in mind that the 4 obvious marking on the fuel gauge are the official markings the others around the dial match those of other gauges and might represent 1/16th of a full tank. At 19.5 Gal US do the math and you will see that 2.4 Gal is close the 2.1 Gal claim to the level that MB says thats when the indicator should light up. Close enough!

Would you like warning light come on when tank is empty? I think on GLK with its tiny tank it's a good warning level. On my older cars I could go another 70-100 miles with light on.
