Hi there, I've just bought a 2013 Ford B-Max 1.6 Automatic from a 2nd hand car dealers. I've had trouble filling it up with petrol. There's not much fuel in the car, so first of all I tried to fill it up at Tescos, as soon as I put the nozzle in and press the trigger it starts shutting off as if the tank is full. I managed to get ÂŁ10 in, but gave up as I had my grand-daughter with me and we were in a rush. I tried again today at a different petrol station and the same thing was happening. I managed to get ÂŁ30 in but it took quite a while and kept shutting off, I was trying the nozzle in different positions, all the way in, half way out, up, down etc. Also some fuel dribbled out down the side of the car, even though it wasn't full. I previously had a 1.2 Fiesta and never had any problems like this putting fuel in. Has anyone else experienced this withe a B-Max?
