Default Hard to fill fuel tank

I tried a quick search, didn’t really find much...

Anyone have an issue with filling the fuel tank? I have to fill it really slow, or it just bubbles up and kicks off the fuel nozzle.

my 05 didn’t have this issue, just this “newer” 09

As you noted with your '05 A6, this is not normal. So, there must some type of obstruction in the fill tube to the tank. Suggest you use a boroscope to inspect the fill tube into the tank.
