Cannot fill car with gas?
Cannot fill car with gas?
I have been to three gas stations over the last 2 days to put gas in my car and it will take about 2 gallons and stop. The gas pump attendents have tried everything and of course spilling at least a gallon on my car everytime. Anyone have this problem, and a fix? thanks
i have occasionally had this problem also - I just go to another pump at the same gas station and no problem - i think it is maybe a combination of the pump adjustment/sensor setting and the quirks of the car when it happens.

I have this problem intermittently, it seems to hit me then stick around for 3 weeks an ultimately disappear immediately after I call the dealership to book a service appointment. It's less dramatic for me, it will take approximately 14.5 gallons before it starts spilling on the car. I tried the upside down nozzle thing and it just made it worse.
i imagine it might be a slightly twisted filler neck hose. it connects the fillerneck and gas tank. if installed incorrectly it creates a slight kink and will cause this. dealer should fix free of charge.
My car has done it a few times, but hasn't in the last 6 months.
Good luck proving it to a dealer though. You'll have to show them the problem.
Just fill the car slowly at first and a bit faster and faster and you'll be fine. It's an annoyance more than anything.
