I put in around 17 gals and the pump shut off... at full. When driving away, I noticed the fuel guage (which has been working just fine) only climbed back to the 1/4 mark... never going past, and I've started/stopped a few times since.

As Roseanne Roseannadanna used to say....

It's always something ....

Any ideas?

Had a fuel pump replaced a few weeks back... first fill-up since then.

I really don't care if it doesn't go any higher.... not going lower in a few weeks might present a problem tho'....

I usually fill-up when the guage is on/below empty .... so I think I broke it by filling up early
Had the same happen to me when I had the fuel pump replaced in my Cayenne. I found that the hoses to the pump (inside the tank) needed rerouting as they were keeping the float from rising.
