Sound of gas sloshing around?
Is it normal to be able to hear the gas slosh around in the tank so much?
When at a stop with the radio off, I hear it very well. When shifting into 2nd and letting off the clutch, there is a moderate-volume thud that happens sporadically. Sometimes it sounds like the gas hitting the back of the tank but I can't tell. I am going to fill the tank back up to see if it goes away but I figured I'd ask if this was something normal. |
Yup. Side effect of placing the fuel tank under the driver/passenger front seats. Most cars have it under the rear seats. this is what makes the Fit's back seat "magical."

Interesting, I figured the gas tank was pretty damn close. When the tank was full I didn't have a problem. It's about halfway and it's been making the noise. I guess I'll just have to keep 'er filled up!
Anyway, all's well then. Thank you. |
