I have a 2018 Mini Cooper S, and I used to get a fuel range of around 550–600 km on a full tank. However, twice now, I’ve run out of fuel around 400 km, even though the gauge still shows some fuel left. The car just won’t start because it’s effectively empty. Has anyone else had this kind of big discrepancy? Could it be a fuel gauge calibration issue or something else entirely?
