    gas meter weird (gauge is blinking with 2 bars remaining)

    anyone knows what's up with my gas gauge? I know for a fact that it usually only blinks with 1 bar only if you have around 10 Liters left of gas.. Oddly enough, this is the first time my car did this.. is this an indication of a problem in my fuel system?

    Facebook won't load the link you posted for me so I cannot see it. My fuel gauge will blink with one bar for low fuel, then after a while that bar goes away and it blinks with no bars meaning really low on fuel. If your gauge is just blinking, I don't know what would cause it but I am interested.

    sorry about that, having trouble with sharing the video.

    it basically shows that there's still 2 bars in the fuel gauge but the bars are blinking. same way as when you have 1 bar left and have 10 liters of gas left.

    That's interesting, I'd have a dealership look at it. Good luck and let us know if you find any more out about it.

    never encountered this.. any updates or found anything that might have cause for the 2 bars to blink? what it means? or might be a glitch hehe
