So, let me get this straight then.

The 'Fuel Warning' is, in fact fuel stations being shown on the sat nav screen? No 'bong' even? Parrrgh, thought it could at least tell you all sexy like " warning, if you continue, we'll run out of fuel and be stuck out here all day/night with just each other for company" ..... mind you, that could be a non sexy man saying that - euchhhh Laughing

Should be Moira whatsername the newsreader: "Warning, low-fuel initiated engine shutdown will commence in XX miles, refuel now"

Failing that the Nav should re-route you to the nearest garage and refuse to navigate anywhere else!! Very Happy

I have found that only works when you are 'running a route' as it will then calculate where you are and where you need to go to, given your current fuel consumption, then calculate if you have enough fuel to get to your destination, it will then show the fuel stations en-route.


Mine shows up fuel stations regardless ...only after the fuel light has come on the dash though

That wasn't the question, the fuel WARNING on the Sat Nav shows en-route.
