Corolla Verso Fuel Gage

[TonyRay]

This happens only when I park the verso on a steep'sh slope or park in a gutter which forces the car to rest at a pronounced left or right incline. When I start the engine the 'low fuel' light comes on even though there's half a tank of petrol, and it stays on for quite some time. The trip computer also shows the range available, for the amount of fuel remaining, as '0 miles' despite the half tank. The matter corrects itself as soon as more fuel is added, it's odd. Anyone else come across this?

not sure how the gauge for this car works , but sounds like a faulty float ,. check if it happens with the cars nose facing down hill and up or just one way or the other. must admit though ,i aint heard of a problem like this in moden cars . just old fordies <_<
