ross501:
i have just got a 3 door 300tdi disco it hold around 50l and goes from half full to empty in 50miles is this right or have i got a problem somewhere the top half does about 350miles

AbyssDJ:
sounds like your fuel gauge and/or sender is knackered mate :)

Keri:
Theres something strange afoot there  :?

SteveGoodz:
Fuel tank capacity should be 89 litres (19.5 gals). If you can only get 50l in there from empty then there's something wrong :?

The imbalance between the two halves of the gauge suggests a sender problem. It might just need a good clean. You can get to it via the rear load space. Lift up the carpet and there's an access panel in the floor through which you can get at the top of the sender. Be careful not to break off the pipes when undoing them  :oops:

HTH

ross501:
