Default Audi A6 (C6) 3.0TDI no fuel?

So, yesterday I thought I'll take the car on a drive, since I hadn't driven it for a week. To my surprise, the fuel gauge said it had no fuel and the computer also suggested me to refuel and had 0 km's left. (I remembered that it had about 30 litres in the tank a week ago). I thought, well it might be stolen then. I drove to a gas station filled the tank with 15 litres and it still showed 0 on the gauge and instrument cluster.

So my question would be, is there anything I should try before taking it to service?

hi dude
you may be suffering from a software fault

have a read here
http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar...4/?section=bad

Fuel gauges suffer a fault of the needle stuck on empty when the tank is full (software upgrade required) and the parking brakes are intermittently not releasing, again requiring software upgrade.
hope that helps?

cheers
