Fuel range not updating?

[spellchek]

Hi all, my Raptor is still very new, only about 250 miles, but noticed my DTE didn’t change at all in my way in to work today. Looks like some international owners have had issues with either the fuel sender or pump altogether, but wanted to see if anyone here had also experienced this? Maybe flukey software error and it will update itself on the way home?

DTE is an estimate, not a measurement. There have been numerous occasions where I drove ten's of miles without a single digit change in DTE. It all depends on historical conditions vs current conditions.

When I picked up my RR, it was registering something like 6 MPG. Over the course of the tank the MPG steadily rose. I dont recall checking my range, but I could imagine that it it might have held steady as the fuel level dropped, but the avg MPG rose.

You might try reseting the trip to see if the number act more like you expect.

I see this all the time after I do off road stuff or climb/descend mountains (ex. I-8 in Cali between San Diego and Anza-Borrego)

I'll fill up after off-road shenanigans and my DTE will actually climb for a while, then it will stay the same as I track up the mountains on I-8 (because the MPG is bad, just like offroad conditions...the computer doesn't know what to do), then go up some more as I cruise downslope, and finally start falling again as I get back into town.

I've filled up in Big Bear after doing trails all the way up the mountain, and my full DTE will be like 190 miles...

I noticed that when I added 1 gallon of fuel it had no effect on the DTE, drove 10 miles with "0 miles to empty" and a full fill up was 17.5 gallons. Seems like the DTE is bugged and doesn't always update

You need to go through a few tanks before the system can properly give a range estimate. At the moment the computer has no idea how many miles per gallon is in a full tank vs a half full tank etc

Just keep driving it and it’ll sort itself out
