veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted July 25, 2005 ok so i get sorta bored and decide to go for a drive. i didnt ramp the car or go no more than 80 i was watching my fuel gauge and the needle kept going up and down all the time it went soo low at one point i nearly went to the garage to put some more in but noticed in time that it went up again. is this a common problem in most cars or is it just a little niggle that happens every now and again? thnx craig Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted July 25, 2005 it just depends on whether you're going uphill/downhill or left and right mate.......if you think about it the fuel is moving around in the tank from side to side....its even worse in older cars!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StormVR6 0 Posted July 25, 2005 My C has had 2 gauges bugger up, and they used to go all over the place, once the fuel needle went all the way round and sat on the temp needle! My C does seem to suffer from extremely active fuel needles, and in my case that also applies to the temp needle as well. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
