Range on mine updated as I drove out of the filling station. Best ever was over 600 miles after a nice economical run down the coast of Loch Fyne.

Probably only 8 miles, it usually updates after filling the tank will give it time

Did the fuel gauge register that you’d put in fuel?

I've actually had this b4 when I was on holiday down south I just ignored it and it corrected its self next time I topped up I usually go by the 1/4 tank indication on the fuel gauge to top up

That does seem a bit strange- mine updates pretty much instantly based on the current mpg .

I suspect you have a dodgy fuel gauge sender/connection. But I'm unsure how to test for that.
The vertical bar graph fuel level display is obviously an electronic thingy and very different to the old fashioned "Smiths" gauges that I'm more familiar with. Jules
