Why ?

 

Does the tank leak ?

 

I have read many threads on this forum where the fuel level indication is questionable, and only 55 litres are needed to fill.

 

Does it really matter, unless you run your tank down low often (which is not a good idea) ?

That's good shout out buddy not a leak but we've been topping up just about 300miles so thanks looked on having the tank replaced but it's nearly £1000 just means a topping more often......

Hi there!

300 miles!!!!!!!

Ooh I'm jealous of such range 😂

On our LPG tank anyway, it's usually about 260 the way my wife drives it....... 

But if we were on a trip I'd never manage that far without a coffee and leg stretch stop anyway, it's my age!!

Looking at Amayama for mine a fuel tank would be around 500Ukp delivered.

Though yours may be different - it is a 2010 model or a 2002-2008?
