  1. mpg ah ok, just said at start of video mpg issue, this might help also.
  2. PS I've a VW garage around the corner. Would you expect they could do this for me and roughly what would be the cost. I'm just not a mechanic and when I talk of the problem to my own garage they look stumped as i don't think its coming up as a fault on the computer. Car had abs fault which they identified using this gizmo and i know he never mentioned any other faults shown on their machine. Also if pump sounding ok i assume it must be sender unit. Is it quite common on these car has 100k on it?
  3. thank you really very much appreciated. will have a look there tomorrow
  4. if it does can you explain how it does so? thanks.
  5. thanks very much watched the second video as the fuel guage on that was doing exactly what mine is. can i ask if sender unit at fault could it also affect mpg or does it just fix the fuel gauge issue on the dash. many thanks. honestly saved that video.
  6. Gosh thanks, seems quite involved for such a daft thing i just worry about getting trims off and back on without breaking them. not really very good myself. thanks for the advice though, will see if i can identify any which don't involve trim removal.
  7. Honestly, mounting points on the tin have corroded through, one bit was dragging underneath the car probably creating a nice firework show from the rear. I tried to pull it off completely coz the whole thing just moves around, knocks, makes noises when im driving. can't seem to get it off easily as its tucked behind the exhaust system and curved to flow around it. Do I need to remove whole exhaust system to get this stupid thing off. Thanks guys. Again another stupid problem which i'm fed up with. Thanks
  8. Tried jabbing needle inside hole, nothing still... any ideas. Thanks again
  9. Hi folks, I write hopefully in case someone can help or point me to someone who can. My fuel gauge has been acting up sometime now and I'm completely fed up with it. You put fuel in for example I put £20 worth of diesel had about 50miles left before this. Drive home restart car in morning. Fuel gauge alarm goes off needle drops to nothing, MPG computer telling me range says nothing or less than what it should, fuel gauge goes back to where it should sometimes whole thing over again. I have videoed this in case anybody wants to view the issue for themselves. I have noticed the MPG is bad I mean setting off takes a good while for average MPG to go from 30s to 40s which it never did. Car always set off around 40s and went into 50s. I think car using more fuel than it should regardless of the flippin fuel gauge issue. Its so annoying. I did check oil, Garage did oil change sometime ago, it has been overfilled but not by stupid amounts, whether it was correct oil which I insisted it was. PLEASE HELP SOMEBODY. I'm just about to sell car coz I'm so sick of fuel alarms and not being able to get a decent MPG anymore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXv7DlBZwec&ab_channel=SpeedyPaul
