Is it just me or is anyone else finding petrol pumps more sensitive these days.
I seem to find them shutting off, presumably caused by back pressure from the tank, if I try to increase their flow to more than a trickle .
Holding the nozzle at different angles dosn't make much difference. It is not all pumps but there seem to be more of them and it is b......y anoying.

I find I have this problem much more often with my S compaired to my previous 2 cars - it is very annoying.

Hold the handle of the pump upside down and you wont have this problem at all.

You will know when your tank is full by the petrol leaping out of the car all down your leg and into your shoe.

Hope this is some help, worked for me

Does everyone else find that the nozzles don't really fit the S?

Or is it just a JDM thing.

Fits fine on my UK Spec, dont think the JDMs would have a different nozzle hole would they??

lukedon

my JDM fits fine!

Dembo

Just me then.

There's something about fitting a fuel filler restrictor for the SVA, which I thought was one of those things they do on the day and then remove. So maybe I still have mine.

There is one particular pump at my Shell garage that I have a problem with and I try and avoid it now. I ended up with

Survey S2000

Mine is fine! the A3 was worst. It all about postion and speed, how boring.

they are increasing the fill speeds to get cars through faster

try using a rural petrol station with old pumps... they are slowwwww
