low fuel warning indicator

there doesn't appear to be a low fuel yellow light on MY10 cars - can this possibly be true?? ============

it looks like that Bobby, but definitely nothing amber... the sat nav warned at the start that I wouldn't have enough fuel for the journey to complete, would this override the amber light? ============

How many miles of fuel did you have left? As mentioned the warning doesn't come on until you have less than 30 miles which is very late and is more like only 1 gallon left. WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award

can someone post a picture of what the amber light looks like in a MY10, so that I can exclude "being thick" from the list of possibilities before I raise the issue to the dealer, cheers ============

Spain 

if your fuel indicator indicates the fuel level bad way, ask your dealer because there are several VIN´s afected by a series of fuel tank level sensor that send a wrong signal to the fuel indicator, mine MY10 was affected by this failure and was corrected by warranty, two sensor in tanks, two sensors changed in mine, the corrective campaign was by request, if you detect something wrong tell your dealer that it hessitates . Thumbs Up now its all fine

edited: when i say fuel indicator i mean: fuel gauge and low fuel warning, in the instrument panel, it glows up at the left in amber, at the top of the rectangular display.
