Slow to fuel!

Hi I have a new XS and it seems to take forever to fill up the tank as it chugs and stops really frequently as if the tank is full. Is this common? I just want to be able to hold the trigger and fill it up in one go!

Hi Aman,
I can't answer from personal experience, but I have heard that if you feed the nozzle fully in and then withdraw it slightly, it will fill quicker.

HTH,

May want to have the tank breather pipe checked for a
kink or obstruction.

I have a six month old XS and have no problem at all with fueling. Presumably you have the misfuelling device which is fitted as standard? It might be worth seeing if this has triggered somehow and is impeeding the flow.

There is a plastic gizmo to reset the device which you should have been supplied with (see handbook).

We have a number of D4's on our fleet and one or two defiantly suffer with this. They'll be going to the dealers for a fix. If you've not had yours done by then I will post the result.
