I've done 40 miles with the light on, so it's definitely not on fumes when the light first comes on. Couldn't have been far off empty when I filled it though. If I fill it at the point the fuel light comes on I get around 40 litres in mine.
Hmm...Tank is 42l, isnt ?That gives u 2 liter to spare ... not much

Exactly. I have put over 40 litres in on one occasion, and I remember that I was getting a bit uncomfortable with the time the fuel light had been on. When I saw how much I'd put in, I decided not to push my luck so much in future.That gives u 2 liter to spare ... not much
Going lower than that might run the risk of issues with fuel pick up.

so if 36 is 3/4 tank than full is 48. _+ some margin.
I'd say it's definitely more than 42. Probably around 45.

yesterday i filled up, 36 liter, range was saying 60 miles. And the light was not even on. The gauge was at exactly 1/4. ( i know it's not accurate)

Nothing like that. Push your luck if you like but there is no way its much over 42 brimmed to overflowing.so if 36 is 3/4 tank than full is 48. _+ some margin.

As others have said its one of the sketchiest fuel lights I've had on a car, very little left in the tank when it comes on.
The fuel computer also over estimates the mpg. When it says 45mpg its more like 35mpg. On your 60 mile range its going to be 20% over IMO. Therefore 48 miles which at 35mpg is 6.2 litres.
6.2 + your 36 fill up = a shade over 42l.

just it felt sketchy and just wanted to see if my is like that or what.
as it was my first tank with this car I calculated the mpg, which worked out to be 36.5 mpg, computer says 43 mpg. so yes it's a bit optimistic

It's definitely more than 42 liters, on mine at least. The last litre to brimmed can be quite slow to fill on mine, needs the nozzle pulled out slightly and not too much flow otherwise it clicks off way too early.Recently got one of these for my Mrs and have just noticed the aircon doesn't seem to work, the button lights up but nothing happens. It's a 2014 z32 5 door, has anyone else had any problems with theirs? Can't see any holes in the condenser or any residue round any of the aircon pipes.
edit: pressed valve in on the top hose and no pressure at all, now to find the leak!

Having switched back and forward a few times during my ownership, super unleaded definitely picks up a little more economy and power in the ZC32S, but isn't required and the difference isn't huge.
I feel I notice a difference between super and normal unleaded, as in the pick up in acceleration, but as it’s barely there it may just be me. All in all these are seriously fun, reliable cars. horsemeatscandal said:
Morning all,
About to sell my Swift so got a Remus backbox going spare. Happy to sell it for a very fair price if anyone's interested. Will also throw in some RallyFlapz mudflaps, though not sure how reusable they are.
DM me if interested.
How much for both and where are you located?About to sell my Swift so got a Remus backbox going spare. Happy to sell it for a very fair price if anyone's interested. Will also throw in some RallyFlapz mudflaps, though not sure how reusable they are.

£120 for both. I'm in the Lakes (west) but would happily meet you at Penrith if you throw in some petrol money. It's the straight cut version, 90mm. Think they're about £550 now.
As I say, mudflaps should be reusable, you'll probably just have to get some new push clips. It's a set of four.

If you don't mind me asking did you find the Rallyflapz effective at keeping gravel rash off the sides of your Swift, I actually had some made for my zc33s after seeing them on a picture of your car I think. I have yet to fit them though.About to sell my Swift so got a Remus backbox going spare. Happy to sell it for a very fair price if anyone's interested.

dont fancy posting do you as im miles away
Could do I reckon, yeah. I've just had a look on Parcelforce and put in some estimated weights/dimensions and it come out at around £17 for express48, plus a couple of extra quid for some bubble wrap, etc. Can use whatever courier/service you prefer though. Let me know. It's still on the car for now, but I'm just waiting for a date for my new car and it will be coming off, probably next week.
