My gauge does not go to full after I fill the tank. On the menu it usually initially says the right side of the tank is zero, and will sometimes flicker between 27 and zero as I am driving around, and will display Phase2.
After a period of time, the gauge will go to full and the menu will show both sides of the tank as full, but will still show Phase2.
After more time, usually after about 50 miles/a few days, the indicator will switch to Phase1 and the gauge will be completely normal.
I'm suspecting the fuel level sensor on the right is the culprit. I'm on my third fuel pump. The mechanic says it is the cluster. I don't have time to fix the car myself, and it is really hard to find a good mechanic. Is it the pump/sensor on the right side?? Or the cluster?
The photo shows the menu with a full tank (it is in phase2) but the needle doesn't go to the top until later. Video shows the right tank flipping back and forth between zero and full. Any advice is appreciated.
