Arrow I got shot down...

My car hasn't filled past 3/4 the last two times I've filled it. I told my service rep and he said its normal, and that it's happening because it's so out right now. I really didn't buy it, but I haven't had any difficulties getting to 3/4 (no consistant shutting off) just one shut off at 3/4.

I wanted to check on this board tonight to be sure, but I think this might be my problem. If it only stops once, but stops early, is that a problem with the valve??? Or is this really normal???

Not fixed for 2006

Hello All,

This is my 1st post since purchasing my 2006 G35 3 weeks ago. I have been having the same issues as you guys. I wanted to blame the pumps at Shell but I now know that its the car. I have an appointment with the dealership tomorrow and I will mention the TSB. I will let you all know if this corrects the problem. Other than that, I racked up 1100 miles and love my G.

Thanks

Brian

My 05 did that and when I told the dealer they ordered and replaced the Shutter valve. No more problem (fingers crossed )

Fixed my 06

I took mine into the dealership last week and they replaced my shutter valve and since then its been fine. 2 fill ups and no problem. I actually didnt mind handing over my 57 bux for once at the gas station.
