gas gauge is never at full :(
whenever i fill the car up with gas i just put the gun in and let it sit until it pops by itself, however when i turn the car on it's never at the complete top. here's a pic i took today right after i got in the car after filling it up.. anyone know what the problem could be?

it is the new gas nozzels. The ones like these.
Don't let out enough air. They seal around the gas opening.
Someone needs to make a little ring with holes in it that you could put over you opening first. Then use these crappy vapor catching nozzels. If you use the old style you will have less problems.
Old style.

I got my car about a month ago and had this same problem, but mine kept clicking, around 8-10 times during the fill up. It wasn't clicking at just the 3/4 mark either!
Today I was at Costco filling up gas and I turned the key on until the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and started filling up, each time it would click I would check the dash gauge to see where I was with fuel, to make sure I didn't over fill.
... so long story short the guy working there comes up to me and says:
"Stupid question but why do Porsche owners around here fill up gas like this?"
Seems like what I'm doing is common practice around here and I'm not the only one...

I have an 03 and it would never register full. Last time I took it to the dealer they changed the fuel sensor in the tank. They filled up the tank and it registered full. It's never registered full after that. I don't have the time to take it back and just live with the 3/4 full guage!
