my 2009 3.6 tdv8 has developed a fuel gauge fault.
it seams to sit just under half tank all the time. thought it fixed it self this morning when it was at quarter.. but after driving to the shop and coming back out its back to half .
worryingly the range changes as well, so im not sure how much I have in the tank.

a couple of weeks ago my friend managed to completely flatten the battery when he was picking me up at the airport, 3hrs later and a booster jump start from the RAC the car started.. but im sure the gauge started playing up at the same time.

are the 2 related and I need to reset the ecu somehow or just so happens that the plugs have given up at the same point ?

also ( sorry long one ) is the technical bulletin repair the same for my 2009 .. photos of dashboards look like the lcd facelifted model.

thanks

There is a known fault with the wiring on the sender unit, it is well documented on this site. however I cant seem to attach the replies. Three things in a blokes life his dog,his car and a Cornish pasty,nothing else matters.

thanks Stormin,
after a good old root round the forum I found a similar thread with a LR tech bulletin .

so that's been printed off, and a job for my next day off.. hopefully its as easy as it looks.. cut off conector block and crimp them back together ???

fingers cross

Well its fixed for now..
Wasn't the wire/plug issue... the nearside float unit was broken and not attached to the inside of the tank..
Temp fix and reading proper fuel level..
Will need to try & find a replacement part.
