sorry didn't explain very well what i meant to say was the light has never come on yet but the needle has been quite low (gti 6)

The bulb might have blown.
A good check is to unplug the sender/pump under the rear drivers side seat, the gauge should show empty and the light should come on. If it doesn't then I'd guess the bulb has blown.
