Refuelling problems Freelander TD4 2006

Hi,
Just joined and love my Freelander TD4 2006 (pre Freelander 2 !). I have a problem with TD4 Freelander. When refuelling the garage fuel pump keeps cutting out after every one litre of fuel added.... I've tried many different garages, all give the same problem. I've had the fuel vent pipe on the Freelander "blown out" but that does not resolve the problem. Has anyone heard of a similar problem with the Freelander TD4 and can suggest a solution?

Hope someone can help!
Alan

No, mine fills up fine. Is there a restrictor in the pipe or some form of anti theft device?

Thanks for your feedback but I've tried all sorts of angles and depths without success.

Falkirk Flyer is asking about filling up a FL1, rather than our FL2s. (I can't help as I've not owned a FL1), but there must be some here who've owned both?

I had the same problem with my FL1, the trick which worked for me was to slowly draw the nozzle out sometimes right out while squeezing the trigger.
