These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 2Original post

As mentioned in the 996 section, you need to add plenty of fuel or the system warnings don't extinguish. More than a half tank usually does.

POST 3Original post

It can take while once the tank is filled for the gauge to move to full if the tanks was very low on fuel. Overnight usually is enough time. its a well known issue.

POST 4Original post

I posted the same a while back and was told to stop being a tight wad and always fill the car up, so I'll post the same!
