I have run factory tires on all my vehicles for a long time without much trouble. However, this is my first Mazda.
Looks like I'll have to invest in some snow tires.
jandree22 said:About 2/3 times I've filled my 5 up so far, the damn thing overflows! What I'll do is either manually hold the pump open or "lock" it open and of course, fill it until the first click. After the first click, I never pump to further clicks with the intent to top it off... just the first click and done.
Well, I've been doing that, but when I get to the first click, a split second later gas overflows and all down the side of my beautiful Whitewater (shocked) . It's only maybe 1/8 - 1/4 gallon or so, but this can't keep happening. I thought one time was a fluke of the pump I was using, but a 2nd time out of three fill ups and I know something's going on... this never happened in any previous cars of mine.
Anyone experience this phenomenon or have any tips? I'm calling my dealer about it on Monday. Thanks!
Nah, and that's fine. My wife and I share a car on the way into work anyways. I'll update once I know more...zoomzoom mazda5 said:Keep us posted on the problem you are having. Did they give you a rental? hope everything works out for you. zoomzoom angelo(cheers)
3 of 6 fillups my Mz5 has overflowed upon the first click of the pump. If you somehow think my weak pumping skills are to blame, my deepest appologies.dommo_g said:How hard can it be to put gas in a car without making a mess?
blthlt said:I didnt read this whole thread, but in my Mazdaspeed Protege if I have the car running and pump gas it will do this EVERY single time. Just make sure your 5 is off when your pumping gas.
