Re: Tank reserve question
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  .

I have never put in more than 19.6 gallons so I assume it goes on at 20 gallons.

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

Re: Tank reserve question
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???

There are no stupid questions only stupid answers

Instructions is in the owners manual.Its easy to change I beleve you have a few options.

Re: Tank reserve question
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.
