Fuel spillage? - Click HERE for Original Thread

Hey folks-

Does/has anyone here had an issue with fuel spillage when filling up their MDX's? I've filled mine up maybe 4-5 times since getting it & everytime, when it's done and the pump stops - it kicks back a fair amount of fuel, which runs down the side of my beautiful Zaino job.

Any thoughts?

Not a problem here.....does it happen at the same gas station or different ones?

Exactly what I was thinking - but it does it at every gas station.

I'd take it back to the dealer and have them take a look at your gas tank, there may be a float or valve that is not working correctly.

Thats a good idea. I'll do that & report back. Thanks!

Looks like that thread had to do with "topping off", emdeeX's description seemed to indicate his gas was overflowing w/o topping off......emdeeX please confirm.

Correct. THis is not when topping off - but when simply filling
