rudi, with the new senders, did the miles before empty box become more accurate? Mine is currently off by 40-50 miles

Haven't really paid any attention to that. However, the kilometers to empty still indicates around 80 when the warning pops up. I did notice that now it seems to take longer before the first two LEDs go out, much quicker than the next two.

I can answer your question. My 2 sending units were replaced under warranty this past Friday....9/30. Before the replacement miles to empty was reading 42 miles. After replacement (without adding gas) miles to empty read 87 miles.

BTW . . . Now when the gas pump automatically clicks off all the LED's are lit. Before the repair the full LED was never lit unless I almost ran the tank over by adding more gas.
