For those of you who use your DIC (fill & reset):
How many gallons does it show you have used since last fill & reset when the Low Fuel light illuminates on the instrument cluster?
Is the estimated mpg accurate to your calculations?
Mine shows 13.0 gallons used when the light comes on and the estimated mileage is usually 10-15% higher than actual miles traveled divided by the 14 to 15+ gallons pumped to second pump cutoff. The dealer told me this was "within design performance". I think someone set the BCM wrong and the dealer was too lazy (wouldn't get paid) to make it right.
