Hi Has anyone had a problem with the fuel gauge on a ml. it seems to intermitently work. or only starts working 2 days after you fill the car.

Any help would be appriciated.

What year?

Many of the 00-01 cars had cluster issues.

Mine does the same thing. It's an 02. The rest of the gauges work fine. Any advice appreciated.

Wasn't there one with some software issue where the gauge was "averaging", so to speak ? I remember something to that effect.

I have found it seems to start working after you make about 5 or 6 trips. turning the key on and of does not fix the problem. you actually have to drive the car for some reason.
