gsa (2010) Max tank range

[JFC]

Filled up and zeroed the trip and wandered through Chepstow, Wye valley, Monmouth, Abergavenny etc, and saw a maximum combined travelled and range of 470 miles (38 on the trip and 432 range). What's the most anyone's got out of a full (v.expensive) tank?

 

[LBL]

310 miles and put 32 litres in it to fill it up.

 

[ncpierce]

338 miles and 33.72litres to fill it up
334 miles and 31.78litres to fill it up

I thought it was a 33 litre tank, so how do you get 33.72 litres in? Dodgy pump?

Run it dry and you will get 36 ltres in jjh

It's 33 litres if you fill it to the recommended level. You can get 36 litres in as has been pointed out.

418 miles on my 09 and decided I was pushing my luck. Worked out at just over 57mpg. The lowest I got was 280 and ran out

370 miles coming back from France last summer (lot of 90mph cruising on motorways) - 2008GSA - about a teacup of fuel left when I filled up again.

When you fill-up and the range says (for example) 380 miles, - does that also include the reserve? - or do you get 380 miles and then it goes onto reserve? if you see what I mean.

 

[ncpierce]

380 is it. The count down normally kicks in at 49miles to go on mine accompanied by flashing fuel on the display.

There is no reserve but you need to be looking when the light comes on

On last year's trip across the US, was regularly getting 420+ and at one point had an estimated range of 525 miles
