Curios if anyone else has experienced the issue I had yesterday.
I've had my GX3h for a month and I do a daily round trip commute of 100 miles.
On the way home I have no batter charge obviously so pure hybrid mode.
Coming home last night I started the journey with around 75 miles showing on the combined milage, so no problems foreseen on the 50 miles home.
At round 8 miles from home on the motorway the gauge showed about 30 miles available, which was OK.
Suddenly it changed to empty (three dashes), and then within about a mile a warning triangle and flashing refuel message!. :shock:
I still managed to get off the motorway and went to petrol station.
I managed to squeeze in 37 litres into the car.
Now as Mitsubishi state the tank is 45 litres, I had at least 8 litres which even if I was getting on 30mpg at that juncture, would mean at least 50 miles left to go.
When I filled up the gauge showed a total of 250 mile range!! which is rubbish as this has been showing around 400 miles without a battery charge.
Anyone seen a similar issue, or has mine developed a fault with the fuel gauge. :?:
Thanks in advance for responses
