Tank reserve question

[yat74]

You are correct, When the light comes on you have about 3 gal left. My light came on at 295 miles and I drove it to 338 miles and filled up 22.6gals, just barely made it...another 5 miles and she would have been dry .

Okay..here's my question. Does the light come on before the gauge hits the red line? I have yet to see my low fuel light come on, but yet the gauge is practically sitting below "E".

Maybe mine is broke...like THAT would surprise me.

I also never had the light go on and it sits below E.
I have never put in more than 19.6 gallons so I assume it goes on at 20 gallons.

I am experiencing the same thing with my H3. Takes about 20 gallons to fill after the low fuel indicator comes on.

So, we are all in agreement that if you fill up when the low fuel indicator comes on, you are putting 19.5 gallons or so in. Thus, in my around town driving with a little jaunt on the interstate every day, my 300 miles on 19.5 gallons is 15.4 MPG. Sweet

Previous vehicle was a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which driving the same distance, usually hit between 13.9-14.2 MPG (based on the roof computer calcs).

Here's another stupid question - can you program the keyless entry system to honk the horn when you lock the vehicle???

Put the key in, turn it to the "ON" position without stopping the car. Simultaneously press the lock and unlock buttons on your key fob. You'll see a message on your driver information center (odometer area) that says RKE 1. You can press the reset button to switch between the different RKE (Remote Keyless Entry) modes. I think Lock Honk is mode 2 or 3.
