fuel tank capacity CADILLAC XLR V 2007 1.G Owners Manual

Here are ve things that some owners ask about.
All these things are normal and do not indicate
that anything is wrong with the fuel gage.
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off
before the gage reads the full symbol.
It takes more (or less) fuel to ll up than the
gage reads. For example, the gage reads
half full, but it took more (or less) than half of
the tank’s capacity to t it.
The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or speeding up.
The gage may not indicate the tank is empty
when the ignition is turned off.
The gage reading may change slightly within
the rst several minutes after starting the
vehicle.
