SOLVED-Fuel indicator is Empty, range --- mls

[Pisendar]

Hey everybody.

05 4.8is with 72000 miles. My fuel indicator shows my i have zero gas when i left a gas station and filled up with $50 - approx 16gal. I was little surprised and tried to restart the car and left it for night and still nothing. I took the car to BMW dealer in El Cajon on Friday morning and since i have Mercury warranty i thought pretty much i am covered. Today is Saturday and my advisor called me and told me, basically that wiring is chewed by either rat or a mouse and has to be rewired and it wont be covered by warranty and priced is $450. And also my water pump is failing too because they could hear it working very loud (i was driving car and would be absolutely normal, it would start perfectly) and this problem will be covered by warranty and they have to wait until Monday to get approval from Mercury. My price to get the car back if i want the water pump be fixed will be 138 diagnose and my deductible 50 for water pump.


I told them do not worry about wiring because it sounded like too much $

Ok now i want to ask few questions.
1 - All this wiring for fuel indicator is it internal or external that mice or rat would reached and do something with it? "Ad visor mentioned wiring comes from sending unit"
2 - how can be determine water pump is failing ?
3 - Do you think it worth it to get wiring fixed from them >?


Any help or suggestion would be highly appreciated. Thank you everybody
