Yeah, I noticed it comes on really early too. Once mine came on and it only
took 45 L to fill the tank. I'm all for having a big dummy factor to ensure
you don't run out of gas but a quarter tank? I usually don't let the tank
run that low anyway though. It's not good for the car since you could suck
up some of the crap at bottom of the tank and ruin your filter or injectors.
Besides, what's the point. You're gonna burn the same amount of gas
eventually anyway so just keep her full. I usually fill it between 1/2 or
3/4.
