Yeah, they can't accurately gauge how much petrol's left when the level goes below a certain point - usually just before the fuel warning light comes on
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

It's the same way as when I'm coasting down a long hill, mine can go up by 30 miles easily. It can also go down by loads if I'm hard on the fast pedal.
