135L tank empty @90L whats up?

I just picked up my new 06 screw with 6.5 ft box and its supposed to have and looks to be the 135L fuel tank but it showing empty and the low fuel warning light is coming on at aprrox 85L.My old 04 super cab had the 135L tank and this wasn't an issue.Must be a sending unit prob or computer related anyone else had this issue?

Don't know... but I do know if I fill up with my key in the ing and turned on it will give false readings for about 45 minutes of operation.

Never fill up with the key in and in the run position.

I can have a 1/4 tank left and the low fuel warning comes on and says I have less than 80 km left. Then it resets a little bit later and shows I have 120 km left. This does not happen all the time. I notice it most when I use the remote start, and it is cold out. Not sure what is happening there.
