On the 172 cup you get to 30miles remaining before the light goes on. Happened to me in the first week of owning it.

Thats not really much use to you to be honest!

I did ~25 miles or so on in on Saturday, the digital readout said I had 0L in the tank before I set out so that was confidence inspiring. Was waiting for it to run out on me but it made it to the nearest shell garage luckily, waiting in traffic was torture.

I've got 38 out of mine once, when i couldn't find a petrol station. normally do around 25-30 with it on though.

Its 5 liters so depends how you drive also the sensor not that accurate anyway.

Usually about 5 litres left ish when the light goes on. Depends how you drive tho. About 30 miles approx at a guess m8.

As above, I thought it was a gallon, so about 30miles in a valver driven gently. (or caned to the next station LoL)
