Default Holden Captiva

Just wondering if anybody else has had a problem with a Captiva diesel fuel gauge giving false readings. The reading will drop with the car idling and then a few minutes later goes back up. Suspect it might be one of the senders but just wondered if this was a common fault.

The problem is 1) it's a Holden 2) it's a Holden and 3) it's a Holden

But seriously it'll either be an earthing issue, sender fault or faulty gauge. Kinda depends on the electronics used as to which is more likely to be failing.

No it isn't. It was built overseas by one GM company or another, shipped here, and then a lion badge was put on the front.

Not sure who makes the Captiva, but I think it's Daewoo (sorry, GM Korea).
