Typically, how much fuel is left when the reserve light comes on?
My car is still fairly new, but I typically end up putting @18 gallons in her when I fill up. Yesterday, I had averaged around 13.5mpg, and had about 30 miles until empty on the computer. I put in 18.3g. A quick google search indicated a 2012 LR4 has a 22.8g tank....So I had 4.5 gallons left, the numbers don't add up...any insight? If my time to empty and average are accurate, that perhaps accounts for 2 gallons. Do I really have 2.5 gallons of deadspace, or is something off, like my math!
