Did the new tank have the level sensor in it?

note : ive installed a subwoofer same day so i disconnected the battery + and - during 1 hour .  i have also error message "parking sensor service" ( all sensors working)  and "change oil" (i changed oil at 94000klm on june 18 now im 101000klm,  think its too early no ?"  these message could come because battery was disconnected for long time?

It could be the sensor on the tank or it could be a wire issue, but if the old sensor worked then I would most likely say it's the new sensor at fault.

Parking sensor issue would need to be plugged on to find out what the error is.

As to the oil it's all worked out over how many miles your driving style etc I've never seen it pop-up just because the battery is off & I've had cars in with the battery off for the weekend with no issues. you can always reset the oil life if you wanted to.

thanks for your answer rusty.

- for tank sensor i will install the old one this weekend i'll see problem is solved.

-for parking sensor error message is gone so its ok for that.

- for the oil im just surprised to change it after 4000miles and 10 months but it's like that i'll do
