Just received my Weathertech floor liners. Installed and fit like a glove, look good too. We'll see how they work and let everyone know. My vehicle is brand new. 2010 Rogue SL FWD GothanGray with gray leather, everything on it except the 360 package. Had the front windows tinted this week. Ready to go. Only complaint is the fuel gauge reading full until 120 miles into a tank of gas. Plan to take it back to the dealership soon.

Nissan has given up on the digital fuel gauge on the 2011 models... maybe perhaps too many complaints?

I'm glad you like your WeatherTech liners. I bought mine over 2 years ago and they are very well constructed.

Nothing wrong with that, it takes about 160-180 kms before losing the first bar.
The important part of the fuel gauge is the bottom part, not the top part.

If you are annoyed by that, stop the fill up after the first click. You will lose range but at least you should lose the first bar after 50 miles.

I am pretty sure that is why.
As soon as you move to digital reading, people think accuracy has increased. What people don't understand is that the sensor line behind that reading is the same, just the reading (display) has changed, and no fuel sensor line has never been accurate, in any car, from any manufacturer. It is just that you don't think about looking for it when you have a needle instead of bars.

The only important thing about a fuel gauge is to tell you that you are going to run out of fuel, period.

Same here... but I found a way to get them looking like new with very little effort. I remove them when washing the car and and use my tire bush to scrub them down. Even still, I discovered after they had a chance to dry... I could see brown (dried dirt) embedded in all texture of the mats. I solved this Aerospace 303 works great (just remember to wipe it dry) Makes them look brand new! I imagine other products may offer a similar solution but 303 is the only cleaner I use on my interior plastics.

Hey Elton, does that 303 leave any sort of greasy residue? We have the weathertech 'tray' liners in 3 of our cars, and we've on occasion sprayed some sort of trim shine which gets them looking like new, but at the cost of them being slippery due to the greasy nature of the fluid.

If properly applied, it doesn't. You're supposed to wipe it down after a bit to remove any excess (which attracts dust and dirt if you leave it).

303 is excellent for the exterior as well, given its UV protection.
