Beware (archive)

I don't know if this has been posted before, but just to let you know the "miles to empty" reading is not very accurate. My wife brought my 328i home and the next day I noticed that it stated 17 miles (to empty). I did not even make it to the gas station before I ran out of gas with it still showing 16 miles.
