Default Does your S4 do this?!

Sitting still, the gas gauge moves back and forth anywhere from an 1/8 to a 1/4 of a tank!

It doesn't do this all the time but enough to make me worry about the sending unit. I still think the gauge doesn't read right but I really don't want to take it in for this. I'm afraid it will come out of the shop with some other problem as this started after the last visit...UGH!

No, but my speedo swings wildly for the first 30 sec now that it's cold.

Default Nope, but when she's cold, sounds like pidgeons under the hood.<weird noise from turbos>

Had the noise since I bought her. During each of my scheduled maitenece I had the techs listen and they said it's normal during warm up. =/

Default Mine did...

I mentioned to the dealer when I went in for service and they replaced the sender. Haven't seen it happen since.
