When to put in gas in Subaru Outback?
May be better to put in the gas as soon as the low fuel light comes on. As an aside, the MTE display never displays less then 30 miles. From there the display changes to two dashes. I found that out when driving down an isolated 40 mile stretch of road, having started with 60 MTE showing on the display.
Why does my gas gauge go from full to empty?
This will send the crazy signal to the fuel gauge. This would be the time you see the gauge going from full to empty on it’s own, or usually after you fill up your vehicle it will act up from the sloshing around of the gasoline. This can get quite annoying, and will leave you not knowing how much fuel you actually have.
How is miles to empty calculated in Subaru Outback?
The “Miles to Empty” calculation is based on recently recorded fuel economy, so its accuracy is dependent upon changing driving conditions. This variability is especially pronounced driving in mountainous areas or under high-wind conditions. That said, the MTE estimate in our two Subarus (both 2.5s) has been pretty reliable.

Why does my Subaru Outback say 30 miles?
Because with any mpg, if MTE shows 30 miles the car should not stop. Because the car is sensing at that time that there is SOME gas in the car and the car should not quit. No MPG will give 30 miles MTE when there is no gas in the car. What do you think? It would be good to know what Subaru means by recently recorded fuel economy.
Where is the MPG reset button on a Subaru Outback?
On my 2011 Outback the button for this type of MPG readout function change is on the right side of the instrument cluster–essentially on the opposite side from the trip reset button–but yours might be different because you didn’t tell us the model year of your Outback. In any event… the Owner’s Manual will show you where this button is located.
