happens to me all the time. when you start pumping gas before you pull the trigger all the way set it to the first notch and that always does the trick for me. its letting too much air in if you squeeze the trigger fully. hope this helps

Same here, I am to lazy to drive 45 min. to the dealership. I hate it so much. It doesn't matter if I stop, slow down, put it in part way..... nothing works.

Just bought a 2010 G37S manual with 26k miles and 1st time I tried to fill it up (was almost empty) I couldn't get a single drop in. Went to a different pump and same thing. Couldn't get past 000.000. This was a Shell station I always went to in my Jetta with no problems. Went to a Valero and after trying every angle, speed, and depth I gave up after over 5 minutes, having only put about 2 gallons in. This is absolutely ridiculous. I was thinking there must be switch or button in the cab I had to press or something. There's not, right?

Tried again today and pressed the unlock button on my smart key before I tried pumping and it worked perfectly. Could have sworn I tried that last time but maybe not. Maybe thats the trick.
