Default Fuel Capacity

Hi, I was topping up the tank yesterday, when I noticed that from 3 bars of fuel, 35$ gave me full less 1-2 bars. That doesnt sound very right, considering that the car is supposed to be 55 litres (how much reserve I have no idea).

Has anyone really taken the car and worked out roughly how much fuel is left at each stage. Lets say

Full

Half

Quarter

1-2 Bar

E

Thanks for any help (Sorry this is in metric measurement)

those bars change so drastically based on the slope of the car, that i don't really even look at them...I realize there is some kind of damper on the fuel guage, but i still have a hard time getting a truely accurate reading...i suppose if someone would do a test you would have to make sure that you are on perfectly level ground.
