At least on my car, the "Miles Remaining" indicator seems to have ~0.7 gal buffer built into it.
F30 fuel tank is listed at 60 liters = 15.85 gal.
I often drive to where the indicator is below 20 miles range left and the most gas I have ever put in is 15.15 gal and that was when the indicator was showing "---" about 1/2 mile from the gas station. Other times when I have been in single digits, it has never taken more than ~15.1.
