False reading on fuel gauge
I have a 2003 9-3 Sportcombi. I just filled up the gas tank this morning, but the fuel gauge is on empty with the reserve light on, and the DTE indicator is showing dry also. When I turn the car on, the fuel indicator briefly points to full, then retreats to the false position. Any ideas how to fix this problem?

You have a hatchback - not a combi. The 9-3 Combi was introduced in 2006. You have a 2001 9-3 Hatchback?
Your level sensor sounds like it's gone bad. I'd advise a full pump replacement since you will be removing your tank to repair this.European Motor Services, LLC - Point Pleasant, PA 18950 - www.europeanmotorsvc.com
