I just started having this issue but didn't want to start a whole new thread about it. Filled the car up on Saturday night and have only driven 175 miles since then. When I left for work this morning it showed a little under a half tank of fuel, then the low fuel warning light came on and started flashing that I only had 138 miles of range left (weird). By the time I got to work 22 miles away it showed completely empty, no dots, and no range. I threw 5 gallons of gas in it and no change.

My question is for you guys that have dealt with this issue out of warranty - how expensive of a fix is the fuel sending unit at the dealer? Does that Techron stuff actually clear the issue up or am I pretty much dealing with a replacement item now?
