2007: “My fuel gauge is once again reading completely empty even though I've only gone 40 miles on the current tank which has a range of about 240 miles. I just had the 5th fuel strip sensor in my tank replaced by my local dealer. Bmw is well aware of the problem yet does nothing, except say they are sorry.”
