Hi, I received a warning message "Fault fuel indicator" showing on the multi display screen after I refilled the gas in my car listed above S model. It would disappear after showing for a while. Any clue for what may be wrong with my car? Thanks.

Hello,

It sounds like the fuel level sensor is not working right or failing intermittently. How does the fuel gauge work? We should run the codes to see what comes up before we replace the sensor.

Here is a guide to help us get started:

Please run down this guide and report back.
