Cluster Love
So I finally got some cluster action after two months of ownership! I had been reading about this.
Not sure how bad mine could be considered...I had about 70 miles worth of gas in the car...Then yesterday I started the car and both the gauge and the computer were indicating 280 miles worth of gas...The tachometer and the rest were fine...Is this a sign that I may need to get rid of the unit?
PS: Today it's working just fine and showing the right amount of gas...I also noticed that when it did this, the 280 miles worth of gas was declining at a rapid rate on both the meter and the trip computer as I was driving....

Hmm, I wish i knew about the Techron fix. So I should use 1 techr-->
1 techron per tank and go through 2-3 tanks? Is that right? I normally use 1 STP fuel cleaner about once a month! much less, consistently for 2-3 tanks IN A ROW...
Currently my car is sitting at service waiting for 2 new fuel senders.
I should've tried the Techron method first.
let me know if the above is the right method thanks guys

Do I give 'er A dose of the concentrated stuff each time before>>
filling her up for the next 2-3 times?
This is totally my fault, as she is due for her 40K service anyway...I already know my break fluid is gettting dirty.
I'm such a bad parent!
Man, some of these fuel-sending genes in the TT family are down right bad! Ohhh but she candle those curves...
