Friends: 0 | Re: Low fuel icon There is no low fuel symbol. The last bar will flash when you are in immediate danger of running dry. Most will fill up with 2 bars remaining to be safe. What does this "icon" look like. It most likely is the security light. |

Friends: 0 | Re: Low fuel icon It's a little gas pump that's on top of the fuel guage bars. There is a little arrow type symbol that points to the left near the empty mark on the side of the little gas pump. FishHawk |

The gas pump with arrow is a permanent part of the fuel guage, It did not come on at 2 pips, it was there all the time. The arrow tells you what side the fuel door is on like qbee42 said. | |

Friends: 0 | Re: Low fuel icon Not to worry. It just goes to show that people are generally terrible observers. For example many owners go for weeks or months before they suddenly notice the buzzing of the brake accumulator pump or the flashing of the immobilization system icon, and they panic, thinking that something has failed. |
