Unhappy Fuel Gauge Needle

I JUST BOUGHT A 2001 LS430, AND I'VE NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE NEED SORT OF JUMP FROM EMPTY TO CAPACITY WHEN THE IGNITION IS TURN TO ON. THE LS400 NEEDLE DID NOT JUMP LIKE THAT AND I AM SUSPECTING SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO GO WAY LEFT, IF I DO NOT GET IT RESOLVED SOON.

DOES ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE THIS?

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP!

Thumbs up Gauge needle

It is normal for the needle to do that on the LS430 2001. I own a 2001 LS430 also, and it does the same thing.

Thanks a million for the prompt reply! You've just saved me a minimum of thousand embarrassments at the dealership.

Default Fuel gauge!

No problem. Glad i could give you some comfort with your new ride. There are some big differences with the LS and the other cars lexus offers. You really notice it when you get a loaner or ride with a freind who has a GS or any other lexus model. It seems to do everything quicker, such as the fuel gauge moving up so fast. GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME.
