Towing four 4 stringer hay bales yesterday saw me used a little too much fuel than I thought.
This morning I had a 5 mile trip to the fuel station before work...3 mile on the range...
Looks like I was fairly safe at brimming the tank up when I got there though 😜

So how many of you are brave enough to see zero miles on the range....in 7 years of owning this I got squeaky at 10 miles left in the tank😂

I managed about 30 miles on zero in my L322 one time

In the L405, I've been down to 2 miles and was >100 litres to fill

Once got 45 miles out of a D3 that indicated zero range

We were in France during a tanker strike and couldn’t find a petrol station that had any fuel to sell.

In my petrol L322 4.4 V8 (same as yours) I once tested this, as it's also fitted with LPG.

I ran on petrol until it went to zero miles range, knowing I could switch to LPG on a hot engine without issues when it ran out of petrol.

It went for about 1 mile after it said the range was zero. I was very surprised by this, thinking it'd have at least a gallon left in it, but no, range was one mile after it said zero range.

Don't know if this is the norm, but most cars have around 4 or 5 litres in their when the computer says zero.

I get twitchy when the light comes on and don't push it further than that...

After a couple of restarts with the fuel light on my 4.4 tdv8, it throws a panic and displays restricted performance.

When I had my old TD6 Rangie, I would be doing 600 miles travelling per week, at 60 miles each way commute. I always ran 'tank to tank', filling up every Friday afternoon after getting home, so I would sometimes end up with the fuel light coming on with 60 miles to do to get to the petrol station (okay it's a diesel, but we call them petrol stations!). I would reset the trip counter as soon as the light came on, supposed to come on with 60 miles range left, and then see which was more accurate the mileometer or the range countdown. Never managed to get to zero miles on the range counter, even after doing 75 miles due to a detour one time. Was a bit nervy though as when I refilled that day I put 99.6 litres of diesel in the tank!

Nice pixels for an '03

Only took my TD6 to 0 miles once, knowing I was 1/2 a mile from the petrol station, only got @ 91 litres in it though .

Sod the zero miles, look at the price of the fuel. You lucky so and so  visiting from www.rrsport.co.uk

Not a good idea with injection systems to run them out of fuel, all sorts of damage can be done. On LPG systems the fuel pump is often left running to stop the petrol under the bonnet boiling (or it was on my LPG Rangie). BMW i3 Electric Car

Never knew that, thanks

It was on the first engine 'hiccup' that I immediately switched over to LPG and then filled up within a mile.
