F60 fuel gauge question

Yeah, but I find the fuel gauge accuracy to be suspect. With a 16 gallon tank I was hoping that it was reading "approximately" 2 gallons per LED segment since there's 8 of them but I've had hit or miss results. With one fill-up I had over 180 miles roll by and the gauge was completely lit up, still showed full and didn't drop until I had broken nearly 200 miles -- then all of a sudden it was two segments down.
And BELIEVE the miles until empty -- that bit of data is far more accurate than my 2011 ever was.

The MINI Connected app on my iPhone apparently is more accurate than the gauge... while the gauge reads half right now (~8 gallons), the app tells me that there are 7 gallons in the tank. But for sure it's a pain to fish out the phone to find that out, and I agree that it would be better if there were a truly accurate and detailed reading somewhere in the instrument display panel.
