Gas tank won't fill up
Hey guys I'm having problems when fueling my car I have 2018 540 with 21k miles on it and everytime I try to fill up my tank the car won't take more than half a tank when the tank is halfway of gas and I try to fill it up it'll just start spilling and won't take more gas
Have you guys encounter this problem lmk please any advise since all the dealers are closed |

I will state what is probably the obvious but you are inserting the pump nozzle correctly? Not too far out or at an angle that might be causing the pump to stop!
Is this the same gas station and Sam pumps, not changed for any reason? |

I've had this problem in my E39 M5. It ultimately led to needing the entire gas tank and fuel filler assembly replaced. The sensor in the gas tank was bad. Could also be vapor lock in the fuel lines.
