... that the nozzle doesn't stop quick enough, and you get petrol everywhere??

or is that just my car? or am I just retarded? :?:

Mine's fine, so long as I stop on the first click, as the sticker tells you to. ;)

i have the bloody exact opposite to you.. ticks me off every bloody time.. i dirve my car down to a point where the rnage doesnt display.. so clearly there has to be 55+L of petrol that would go in.. and what happens? clicks after the first litre.. i keep pumping after.. the thing keeps bloody clicking.. and tis not one petorl station, its most of them, i tried all.. So i have to left the pump out to the max, but enuf to pump the petrol in.. usually takes me a very.. im not happy... :evil:

What if you don't pull the pump lever all the way up?

i find that i can only put the tip of the nozzle in, or it will just keep clicking and i wont get a dang thing in there.. and ive always filled mine right up..

is that not good? :oops:

Maybe the 3.0's are different, or maybe your servos just have faster pumps... :)

i think its the fact that our pumps are tooo quick, that the little garden hose sized fuel hole thingy, isnt big enough to be able to vent properly..

like my morning english... :?

I think the clicking has something to do with the angle that held... I had that issue before, but now I tilt it abit and the clicking goes away.

Try shifting it abit higher next time :) hope it helps you.
