Filling with fuel
When I filled up (diesel) yesterday, I noticed that the nozzle wasn't a good fit (loose) and I assume this is due to the 'wrong fuel' protection system, so I didn't push in case it 'errored' and left me trying to reset the system.
Anyone else noticed this?

RE: Filling with fuel
Yes the nozzle doesn't seem to go in as much as I'd expect it to but having filled up 3 times now it does seem to be ok

RE: Filling with fuel
Yep doesn't go fully in, but goes in far enough, thing I noticed is when it clicks out, that's it, dont try rounding up to the nearest pound...

RE: Filling with fuel
I filled up yesterday and didn't notice any problems with the nozzle but did experiennce the wet shoe syndrome, it is wise to stop filling as soon as the click cuts in, don't try and round up as Philskill suggests, its cost enough in the first place so washing the forecourt with it is a hugh waste.[/size][/font]
