Your in tank "sending unit" is most likely bad.

The sender unit is under the rear seat and easy to remove, 6" black plug in floor needs prising out. It is the right hand of 2 black plugs in the floor the left one is the pump. The unit is held in by a threaded plastic cap it may need a hammaer and blunt screw driver or piece of wood to start it turning. I have a problem where the gauge reads low all the time, thought it was because the float arm is stiff but looked at 3 in a scrap yard and they are all stiff. Would be interested to hear if yours turns out to be the same. The low fuel gauge reading was down to lack of experience with this 306. A 60litre tank gave unexpected reults when filling with �30 of petrol expecting it to be full when compared with previous car.

I have the same problem and I'm pretty much certain that the cause is the same, a stiff float arm. I usually drive with a short fuel level and I guess that's the main reason for the issue. The fuel gauge is working perfectly but the pointer is not able to go behond the first reading mark and the reserve LED is always ON.
