Default Fuel Tank Capacity

I’ve noticed on my 2002 GS430 when I’m on empty and fill up gas it only fills up 15.5 gallons instead of the 19.8. Where is the extra 4 gallons?

Your fuel gauge is very conservative. Once the fuel indicator light comes on, you presumably still have about 2-3 gallons of fuel left

My gas light turns on just below 1/8th of a tank. I've had my fuel level needle right in the middle of the E line and managed to put in just over 61 litres. Typically, I fill as soon as the gas light is on and It usually stops at 54 litres.
