Hey guys, my fuel guage always goes to the halfway mark whenever I shut off my Max. After I start it up and drive, it goes back to the real amount of fuel slowly. But once I shut it off again, it slowly goes to half. For instance right now I know for a fact there's less than a quarter tank in there, but it shows half when the car is off. I'm parking on completely flat ground too. I'm guessing it's probably something in the tank that's off, whatever part that measures the fuel levels to make the guage move? Not quite sure...

 

dude when i turn mine off everything drops. its when the power cuts off or at least i think it is. but you should be ok

 

I don't think that's normal either. When I shut off my max, the gas gauge stays where it was when the car was on.

 

So did my old Max.

Besides, even if everything was supposed to drop, that doesn't happen. the guage will go up to half when it's less than half. very deceiving and could screw me over one day if I forget how much is actually in there.

 

i have been driving mine for like 3 months and everything seems fine to me

 

i would hope if you had half a brain in your skull youd at least remember making this thread and always gauge your gas tank cautiously.

 

Calm down. What is wrong with you? I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO DRIVES THE CAR............

I asked a simple question asking for help. If you're not going to help then feel free to exit the thread. Geez.

 

i believe im calm im just not being nice. you on the other hand sir are very much not calm. u mad?

i was also wrong then. but also joking and messin with ya. so it is what it is.

 

No one's mad... just need some simple help.

 

you have no codes right? get your fuel tank sending unit checked out

 

It may be your fuel gauge itself. Mine hits top of cluster when car is off but will come down to normal. Replaced fuel sending unit with OEM and problem still persist.
