Greetings all,
I am a newbie when it comes to the New Beetle. I have had mine all of a month now. I have a question about putting fuel in the Beetle. Before you all get started I do know how to do this....LOL....
My question: What's the deal with the fuel tank cut off for the amount of gas. I filled my tank up tonight. It stopped at 26.00bucks however, I ended up putting 38.00 in it. Why does it do that? Is there something that I am missing when it comes to this topic. I guess another question that I have is do they all do that? What is different the NB fuel tank that is different from other types of cars?
I know that cars will do this with air in the tank. My other car that I drive is a Miata. It would do this however, it would not cut off and then hold 10 more bucks of fuel.
I know that fuel nozzles are made to cut off for safety reasons.
I come to find out that a quick stop at the gas station to fill up is no longer when filling up the NB.
Just wondering if anyone could give me some input. Just so I know what's happening so I don't drive my boyfriend crazy asking him about this like I have done every time I have filled up.
Thanks Paula
