    Fuel Gauge intermittently reading zero when starting the car

    Not sure if anyone had experience with this and looking for some remedy...

    2017 206TSI with the digital instrument

    The fuel gauge reads ZERO on starting the car intermittently (happened twice) with alarms and bells going off and satnav suggesting nearest fuel station. It almost immediately fixed itself when driving off, and it will be fine for a few days. And then, it happens again.

    Problem is the workshop will unlikely to replicate the problem and I'll be wasting time bringing it in.

    Any suggestions?

    Film it with your mobile phone to show the service dept. Issue will likely be a faulty fuel level sender unit or perhaps your digital screen is faulty.
