This might help maybe? There is a setting on the dash for wagon / sedan. The wagon has a larger tank, maybe it is set wrong? To test, disconnect the battery and reconnect, then you turn the key it will have a flashing S (5) or W (UU). Select the one you want by short presses to select, and hold down for a couple of seconds to confirm, then it will give option 3.0 or 3.5 select engine capacity and see if that fixes it??? Just maybe.

The fuel sender (the unit which actually sends information to the fuel gauge and sits inside the petrol tank) is probably faulty. It was a known problem with this model. The only option is to replace the sender. This involves removal of the back seat lower cushion, accessing the small round port found in the bodywork below the seat, and removal of the old sender and replacement with the new. A dealer will charge you around $300 for the job... a private mechanic maybe less. It is a tricky job to do on your own... not because of getting to the sender, but the actual fitting to the wiring. Good luck.

I have the exact same problem with my car. I'd love to know the problem.
