08 Fuel Tank Filling Problem

[boogityboogity]

Anyone have problems filling their tank on an 08? The pump shuts off at half even at slow flow-it takes forever to fill the other half because I have to wait a few seconds after each shut off before starting again. I thought I heard that there are 2 tanks-could it be a problem with the transfer? I'm taking it to the dealer, but it would be nice to be able to tell them where to start looking

I have only had my '08 for about 7 weeks, and only filled it up a few times - everytime with no problem. I really think you have the right idea about going to the dealer -

It's an issue with some of the California nozzles. Just rotate the nozzle so the lower part of the handle is in the 2 o'clock position and all will be well. Trust me on that . . . .

yeah no problems here as well. just don't top the tank off. i have had fuel on the side of my car twice doing that. lol. i thought the first time was a fluke.
