Fuel filling nozzle shutoff during refuelingFUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM11 complaints2021-07 → 2025-02mini-cooper-2015-fuel-fill-shutoff
11552838 The fuel filling nozzle turns off repeatedly while trying to fill the fuel tank and spills out causing a safety and environmental hazard, regardless of the pump being used. As a result, no fuel goes into the gas tank, instead it goes all over the car and the ground
11450980 Fuel tank shuts off the gas pump no matter how much gas is in the tank. Faulty fuel tank vent (purge) value is causing the issue. This is a known issue on Mini's. A voluntary recall has been issued for 2016 Mini's, but this problem is also happening on 2015 Mini's
11424939 Fuel tank did not allow me to input fuel. Pump clicked off immediately. MINI issued a service bulletin on the problem in 2015. I have been advised the entire fuel tank must be replaced, and have heard from other MINI owners this is a systemic problem
