Yesterday I was critically low on fuel, like about a millimetre from absolute empty on the gauge, and it seems the turbo didn't work anymore. Accelerating was deathly slow. Once I'd filled up, everything was back to normal. Is this supposed to happen? Is it a safety feature to make sure you're reminded to fill up, since it's such a pain to drive like that? It's a 307 2.0 HDi LX.
Also, is my car fitted with a trip computer, ie, mileage gauge? I believe there is a button on the end of the wiper stalk which changes the centre console views. But nothing presses on mine. All I can see on the centre console is the radio stations, ext temp, clock, and a 'LOW FUEL' warning message when it was critically low. Maybe the trip computer is not built into the LX?
I don't own a user manual, wasn't one available when I bought the car.
