How far can you go with the gas light on?
Well it's the first time my gas got low enough for the light to go on. I noticed that the light goes on very early compared to other cars. (Now, Im not planning to run the gas tank dry). How far do you think I can go with the light on? (It's a 1.8T) Thanks!

I've driven mine for several miles after it hit 0. I think the reserve is like 2 gallons? It'll say in your manual and you can make a better guess based on your actual fuel economy, but in mine, I probably wouldn't try to go more than 30 or 40 miles.
