there's a known problem with these g35s... search for gas gauge weirdness, you will soon find out what you need to do.

If you leave the nozzle on low instead of delivering a higher volume its has been known ti help because it lets the fumes escape. Hope this helps! It did with mine

Yea mine does that too and its so annoying. You have to hold the nozzle like 3/4 of the way in and it will continue to fill up normally. Sucks cause you can't use the nozzle holder and chill while it fuels

When i go to the 7-11 by my house it happens to me as well. went to the BP down the road never happened again. Try a different gas station first could be a faulty pump.

There is actually a TSB on this and it happened to my 07 G35. I was low on gas and when I went to fill it up it just stopped, in fact gas spilled back out. I had warranty still so I drove it to the stealership, I dont remember the details but they were saying they had to cut something inside the gas tank or something, they removed my rear seats and everything to get to it. I think if you were to take it in, you might have to pay around $500.
