Hi all.
I have a 2002 Saab 9-5 ARC with 47,140 miles.
I left my house to go to the store. The gas gauge read 1/4 tank when I left home. The drive was approx 5-6 miles. I was at the store for about 10 min. I got back in the car and tried to start the car. The car turned over normally twice but failed to start. On the third attempt, the car started started and sounded normal. But I noticed the following problems:
1) solid CEL on
2) transmission trouble light on
3) "ESP off" light on
4) the fuel low light on
5) fuel gauge read almost empty
I then turned off the ignition (the engine did not stall). I don't see how I could have used up 1/4 tank of gas in a 5-6 mile trip. I saw no fluids leaking. All seemed normal since the last time I filled up with fuel a couple of days before. I always make sure that I turn the gas cap at least three times. I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow morning.
Can anybody tell me what is wrong with my car?
Thanks in advance.
