Fuel range messed up or is this by design?

Just wondering whether everyone else’s car does this. It’s a MY24 L460 D350 and it’s the first time I’ve run it this low. It’s currently showing 29 miles of range left and the fuel light hasn’t even come on yet.

I struggle to believe that it’s meant to do this as my previous L405 Range Rover would be showing the warning at around 55 miles.

Does any one else’s do this or is there something wrong with the range countdown on my car?

Cheers

maybe its calculated that range from previous runs, did you just have a hard motorway journey? .. ... - .- -.

Nah not particularly. It’s being driven the same way as all my previous cars with a mix or town and motorway driving at cruising speed. Definitely not being driven hard at all. Even the SVR I used to have would warn you at around 50 miles or range which is why I’m so confused. I’d understand if I was ragging it but I’m not.

I guess the way to test Stan's thought is to go into the Remote app, click on the most recent journey and see what MPG it says you were getting.

If its a really low, like 15MPG then as Stan says, it might still have nearly a couple of gallons (ie not enough to give you the alert).

If it says something around 30MPG+, you know for sure you have an issue.

Good luck!

Curious to know what the miles left will read tomorrow after the FF has had a nightful rest. ... - .- -.

I had to go out now and couldn’t be bothered to risk it. It dropped down to 15 miles remaining just inside the red zone with the light on. Filled it up to the first click and it took just over 77 litres.

The online manual says usable tank size is 80 litres. That don’t really make sense to me either. So the light only came on with 3 litres in tank remaining? Seems like it gave me no warning at all that there was pretty much nothing left.

Fuel level is mostly measured by a „swimming“ piece on an level arm.
Its position and how the arm is bent makes a lot of difference.

I had a new supercharged P525 in 2018 and it showed far less range than expected, then my garage opened the tank and bent the measurement gauge, that it was showing exact „reserve“ light once 15 Liters/100km left.

Maybe this can be done in the other direction on your car? RR Classic 1998-2005
