My 57 plate GS has joined the fuel gauge death list as well.

Symptoms as other - random empty to full readings before complete death.

Just had it replaced (fortunately under extended warranty - £50 excess only - as I was told it would have been £200+ otherwise).

When asked, the service guy admitted:

(i) there had been a load of known failures
(ii) although float option would fit, electronics blocked it's use
(iii) all 2011 GS onwards used float so should be OK
 
Its a design flaw engineered in by an ex KTM tech working for BMW,to make all tossers riding GSs feel for a split second that they are riding Katooms without the guage....BMW designed in germany built in china........:rolleyes:
