Good Evening Gang,
As everyone here on the board knows, I took delivery of my new 'baby' (Base 300 sedan) on Monday, When I purchased the car, the gas gauge read a smidge below the "F" mark on the gauge. I ran the car till about 1/2 tank and decided to fill tank again. (I'm using the recommended 87 octane, as per the O.M.) The pump clicked off after I set it while I went in to get something to drink. I started up the car, and the gauge read the same thing when the car was delivered with a full tank of gas. Has anyone here, had this problem or is experiencing this same thing with their 300/Magnum? I talked to one of the sales consultants at the dealer and he said that it seems normal. I'm puzzled here...
When I take the car in for the first oil change and after delivery adjustments, repairs etc. should I have the technicians check the gauge? Does anyone here think that something needs to be recalibrated? or will this wear-in as the car gets broken in? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again guys! (and gal's too!)
Sincerely yours,
