My gas light has come on. Please! Help! Should I take it to the dealer? I hope it's covered under warranty...

Just buy a reset tool, then you can turn off that annoying gas light without actually filling up. Damn German cars...always trying to think for you.

I got it back from the dealer... They said something about filling something.

Car works though... Sure hope that never happens again!
