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.

Those crazy Germans and their engineering. Just a worthless post and dumb observation but anyone ever notice the 2/4 on their gas gauge? I just find it funny and haven't really noticed it til recently. I can't recall off the top of my head whether other car manufacturers have this or not. I think ROM(rest of the manufacturers) is 1/2. lol
Because it is too distracting to do math while driving 200kph on the autobahn?
haha, i guess i never really noticed... still wonderin about the whole MANUEL thing on my fan speed
I think it makes perfect sense. It stays consistent by telling you the number of sections on that gauge and where you are on but then again I am not that smart so... Why wouldn't you also say that having 4/4 on full tank is silly? It should be "1" at full tank then "1/2" at half tank.

I have thought about that logic as well. I forgot to mention 4/4 since I rarely have the tank full and look that high. It's usually at less than a 1/4 most of the time since I'm always looking to race. lol
Running at less than 1/4 is bad for your fuel pump!
My Saabs were the same way...

What?
My 944 had 2/4 also, but had an R for refuel rather than an E for empty.
Fuel pump is in the gas tank and cooled by the gas, low on gas the fuel pump runs hotter,wears out faster.
I'm aware of the general concept however I think that effect varies by different cars. I've been driving on quarter tank for the past 20 years with no pump failure so far with some cars seeing 150k. I'll take my chances.
Because it is easy to think in quarters (viertel in German).

I've been thinking the same thing! Why the hell is every other part in english and the air is somehow "Manuell"??
All US cars carry option code M130 "Control and indications in English lettering", not spelling.........
4/4 ?? how stupid would that be
You should keep your tank near full to deter condensation. N00b would keep it 1/4 or less.
My wife's Volvo has a fuel gauge that reads "12" at full and "0" at empty. At first glance, this seems to make sense until one realizes that the car has a 17 gallon fuel tank...

WTF? My fuel gage says "0" at empty, not "0/4". How am I supposed to think in quarters with indicators like this?
Yeah, well my amp goes to 11... -Eric

LOL same with my Yamaha receiver goes to 51!
Manuell...is Porsche's HVAC engineer who designs the instrumentation displays. I don't have a aproblem with that. relinuca
Hey, the Mayan calendar ends Dec. 21, 2012. What's with that?

Really?! Then who is Auto? -Eric

If the Mayans were supposed to have the inside track on the when the end of the world will occur, then why didn't they predict their own demise? What's the point of making your calendar go out to 2012 if you're going to be dead long before that????

I bet Auto and Manuell have the answer.
