    2018. After the battery died and was replaced, my Gas Gauge AND Gas Monitor are off.

    Used to be pretty accurate. Now both needle and miles to zero are off a good four gallons.

    Anyone heard of this? Maybe just need to drive for a while longer BUT Ive done 1200 miles and its still off. City driving and one 400 mile freeway trip.

    I had the same thing happen on my 2018 Sequoia. Replaced the battery in February when it died.

    the gas mileage range on a fill up would never go over 289 miles on a full tank. After replacing the battery now it shows anywhere from 320 to 350 miles on a full tank.
    After the first fill up it actually showed 420 miles range .

    not sure what’s correct anymore .

    That describes mine perfectly. It never eventually corrected?
