Hi all, whenever I put diesel in my car I have issues with how quickly I can do it, when I pull the handle right in, it stops and I have to trickle it in and it takes a lot longer than it usually does. It's the 05 plate octavia 4x4 1.9 pd tdi 100 bhp model.

We've had four Octy 2 estates in the family and every one has had the same problem.  We get around it by inverting the filler nozzle, and as long as it's inserted into the filler neck there are no problems with blowback.

Thanks Mike, I'll try that when I fill her up next.
