I know this issue has been covered on hundreds of posts, I have read most of them!! But can’t seem to find anything that covers my issue with the gauge.
The problem I have is that when I fill up, the gauge only reads half full, as I use fuel the gauge fluctuates between half and the line where the small graduations start, after 160 ish miles the warning light comes on and the miles to empty start to countdown as they should.
The bike is ‘06 and I had and issue with the gauge fluctuating fixed under warranty 4 yrs ago when I got it by dealer(non BMW)who apparently changed pump and fuel strip.
What I would like to know is, If this is usual the failing fuel strip issue, fine I will live with it and use the trip reset on fill ups(I usually do it anyway and I don’t get the annoying continuous warning light normally associated with this fault.) If its a different fault and an easy(cheap) fix and somebody can point me in the right direction I will sort it.
