Since ive owned the 93 teg i have only filled it up fully twice lol both these times were at BP and the pump doesnt stop until its too late. When its almost full, i hear bubbles coming out but the pump doesnt "click" until 1 second after petrol comes out from the fuel tank. What can be the source of this problem? thanks

High flow rate on that particular pump, driveway angle, you not putting the nozzle in far enough could all be causing it. Fill up somewhere else...

No offence but this would have to be the most trivial 'issue' post on here for a while!

Nothing wrong with your car if that's what you're thinking

lol but this happened at 2 difference BPs, and i put the nozzle in fully every time. As for driveway angle, they were both flat. ill go try some place else next time and see what happens

If you can hear it bubbling up
Then stop
Or reduce petrol flow

stop filling when you reach around 35L if fuel light just turned on if it always overfills
