Problem with gas gauge
Sometimes when I start my car the gas gauge registers full when its only half full. After I drive for a few minutes the gauge will correct itself. If I check the computer on the navigation it resest the miles since refueling. I also notice the car is taking longer to start. Do you think the battery could be going bad? Maybe something else?

Ive got a similar problem but 80% of the time i fill up the gauge only goes to 3/4 the way full and says empty when i really have 1/4 of a tank left, the other 20% of fillups it either works fine or works fine then goes back to understating my fuel also sometimes it will fluxuate hourly between my actual gas level and the understated amount. I just live with it and know that if i dont go over 350 mi/tank i will be fine. Usually i fill up after 150 mi or so because i like to have a full tank so the gauge isnt an issue for me
