For any new 850 owners, just wanted to pass on to you that you shouldn't take the trip computer's estimate of miles remaining in the tank as gospel. Mine showed 30 and it ran out of gas. Of course it was dumb to let it run down that low, but I'm glad I learned my lesson in the city rather than on some deserted highway!

Now the check engine light is on, which I understand should turn itself off after a few starts and stops, or a couple of days.
