Slow fuelling

Skaartj · Jul 24th, 2018, 12:56

Hi i have seen this covered before about 1.6d slow to fill but does anyone with a 2.0d have the same trouble as i might have an idea how to cure it on the 1.6d but need to check something first.

Do you mean that the pump keeps cutting out? If so, pull the nozzle out 1-2" and it should fill fine. It seems to create too much back-pressure making the pump cut out.

I always thought it was just my car that was wrong, or the pump I have been using.

So this is actually a known problem! Thanks guys.

I find that there is a difference between pumps. Some are better than others.

Btw, mine is a 2.0 petrol.

Thanks i have already read about doing that but to no avail. I am wondering if people on here with the 2.0d have the same issue as if they havent i might have an idea for a fix for the pump nozzle cutting out on the 1.6d which is what i have.
