my first time filling up today this is so helpful. personally, i think being shown how to fill up should be part of the learning to drive scheme. even if its filling up only once.

Never had a father to show me how to do that.. So this is helpful

I usually use my card to pay, but sometimes the card machine at my local garage doesn't work. The staff are usually pretty lenient, and there are 2 shops that are a 2 minute walk away from the garage, so if the card machine doesn't work, they'll let you go to the shop to get the cash out (their only condition is that you have to leave your car there if this does happen.)

I had no idea how to do this! my parents don't drive so I'm very unfamiliar with these type of things anyway. I'm currently learning so this was a worry of mine, and was gonna ask my instructor to take me

Extremely useful for new drivers like myself, thanks for thinking out of the norm Matt

If people have a problem with nozzle comstantly clicking usually happens with toyotas or fords capless fueling. Lift up the nozzle abit to let some air through as theres an air lock

Even though I work in a petrol station I've never used a fuel pump before, so this is going to be a super handy video for when I pick up my first car so I dont look like an idiot to my coworkers Edit: as an extra point, the fuel pump may not work right away, as the staff have to authorise it so they can check you aren't on your phone/smoking etc. If you spill some fuel, let the staff know, even if you cover it with sand yourself, depending on the amount they may need to make a note of it. When paying, make sure you check which number pump you used, sometimes theres more than one "silver car over there".

I am from Europe, recently bought a car in the UK. And now I need to go to the gas station for the first time. Although for the experienced driver it shouldn't be a problem; it is, because in Europe everything is (and looks) different, including names of the fuel. So this video is very useful, not just for young drivers but also for EU drivers. Thank you! 🌸

I want to thank you so much for taking the time to show everyone who came here to learn this task. You have literally saved my skin and explaining the difference between petrol and the other.

In case you forgot which side the fuel filler cap is when you get to a fuel station, on the fuel gauge inside the car, there will be a little arrow either pointing to the left or to the right to indicate which side the fuel filler cap is. 😀

Exactly my case, passed the test but have to watch this video when on my own in the car on gas station. Thanks to you I did it 🤣🤣🤣, Extremely helpful!

Thank you! About to drive in Scotland for the first time and while there are other vids about signage, driving on the left, etc - there haven't been any about filling the gas tank. Very helpful!

I passed my test yesterday 3rd time the night before I watched all your videos and they really helped brill instructor and know what your talking about , still going carry on watching as I wouldn't have a clue how put petrol in now haha

Thank you so much. My driving instructor, who was a pretty decent one and I’m grateful to him for teaching me how to drive, didn’t teach me how to fuel a car or how the fuel system in a car works.

Absolutely BRILLIANT, really clear and SUPER helpful. Please do other videos for complete newbies, you are fabulous! Thank you.

Thank you for this video. I've just passed in August and am looking for my first car but the thing most worrying me apart from how to top up oil, water and brake fluid etc is how to fill up with fuel, I'm scared of doing it wrong so this video is helpful. My instrutor didn't teach me this. Thank you xx

This video is helpful as my new car is a 2017 Peugeot 208 and obviously the fuel cap opens with the key. Going to put petrol in it for the first time.

That was the best driving lesson so far. Congratulations!!!! 👍 🙏

I'm about to do it today for the first time as a driver, done it before as a passenger plenty of times.

I'm going start my driving lessons in two weeks can't wait, I'm more excited than nervous to be honest.

There is a hook on the fuel filler lid to hang your cap and keys. Thanks me later.

I never got taught how to fill up on my driving lessons, first few times doing it after I passed I was so nervous and spilling petrol everywhere but now I feel like a pro🤣

Had no clue what I was doing before coming to this video so thank you so much!

passed first time last week thank you for all the videos that helps me alot 👍🏽

Thankfully I got to drive in a watch my driving instructor fill it up and learn how to but thought i should refresh my memory 🤣 should be something that's taught to learner drivers

Couple of things I would like to add to this video if I can. You filled your car until the nozzle clicked. That is fine but the pump was at £44.92. You could have easily pumped another 8p of petrol in there and has a nice round £45. (maybe that is my ocd talking) but I always round to the nearest £. Also one last tip, and this goes for everyone. When you fill up with petrol and go in to pay, ALWAYS lock you car folks....always. You never know who is around watching and waiting to see what you left in the car. I am still shocked by the amount of people I see going in to pay and leaving cars unlocked with valuables in cars, handbags, phones etc.

"Good practices". 2:52 Instead of leaving the fuel cap on the fuel door itself - where there is a proper hook to place it - he just places it where you should not. Just kidding! Very nice video, mate. I think it is very important to teach, in a complete and calm way, how to proper drive on the road. And you are making a fantastic job! Cheers.

anyone noticed fuel price?

Omg even more helpful for me as I have exactly same car!! It might sound silly but it made me more comfortable. Lol. cheers!

Hi Matthew, thanks for the video! For example if I go in to the shop to pay the fuel, should I leave the car beside of machine number 7, or should I park it first in the parking area nearby the shop? Thankss

Very simple explanation thanks a million

Thank you for this video. As other comments mention, it is crazy how this isn't taught as a standard in driving lessons. Even though it's a simple process, this helped me a lot fuelling up for the first time. Experienced drivers may take this for granted! Thank you!

Thank you so much for this demonstration 😊

It’s so cool how you’ve got a GTI as a driving instructor car! It’s probably a good thing to learn with a bit of power - there’s nothing wrong with a powerful car as long as you know how to control it properly and when it is safe to deploy the power.

Very helpful gor a new drivers. Thanks alot 👍

Wooow that’s so useful brilliant information I needed that thank you so much 🙏👌

Thank u for uploading this vid. I know i asked u for this vid but managed it on my own haha but yh thanks matt

A tip that I have is if you don't know what side the fuel door is on then there is a little arrow pointing left or right next to fuel gauge. Helps when you drive lots of different cars. Also if it keeps on clicking and you know it's not full the try different angles with the pump

In my country there's designated employees at the gas stations that will pump the fuel for you, so this is helpful if I ever get to drive in some other country where self pumping is common.

Thank you for this. It is very helpful.

2:48 never leave your belongings unattended. Someone can take it away and you're going to have a horrible day. Instead, get the fuel cap tied to the fuel door, so you can just leave the cap with it.

Don't forget that most major stations have extra long hoses and have instructions to use both sides, regardless of which side your filler is.

@beardyface8492

5 жыл бұрын

I haven't forgotten, but both the instructions & the still-not-long-enough hoses are useless when you arrive in a van :P Regardless of which, those long hoses can mark your paintwork dragging over the car body, which they often do despite attempts to make them not by the pump designer.. so "scroo the petrol station's opinion" & land the correct side, I'm the customer, not them. If they complain I'll go somewhere else in future!

Very helpful video.. Love your nail paint

Very useful video.. thank you so much for this. I was wondering how to put petrol on since I'm in America 😂❤ and you popped up. Thanks

What car do you have how did you put the fuel information in to the system ??? Thank you really helps

actually this is quite helpful, the most confusing part for me is actually the payment proccess.... the fueling and stuff is kinda straight forward

A little hint (especially if you are in a new or hire car), as to which side the fuel cap is. On the dash fuel gauge, there will be a tiny arrow pointing to which side it is.

Too many here in Birmingham, with lots of clueless drivers owning expensive cars and lacking basic driving skills and knowledge, such as the MSM manoeuvre when turning into a road.

Personally... I'm a bit anxious. And sometimes it is difficult to grap confidence even with obvious things. Therefore even small details should be shown. I had a great instructor and had driven with her about 80 hours. Passed my practical test at third time - but was very close to pass at first. Since i have my first car (bought just a week ago). I feel like need to learn driving from the scratch again just to polish all the technics that been shown on the course. Anyway... This is another problem, cause sometimes we were driving to the fuel station however I never been given a chance to pop the tank myslef. And trust me. Whatever you been shown, comes much, much easier than you need to figure it yourself. Advice to all young/new drivers. - Once you Pass your test, do not stop learning! read the highway code, dirving guidance books, keep watching videos like this, always stay calm and responsible on the road. As you grab your confidence and experience, be patient to other new drivers that just passed their test as you will help them to gain theirs.

I hope this isnt stupid question but I've filled up a few times and a couple of times the nozzle has been stuck in the pump. Like it wouldn't come out of the pump to let me fill up if u know what I mean. I had to try for a few minutes to take the nozzle out of the pump. I dont know what in doing wrong lol. Thanks for any answers

How much is each lesson? And do u do student discounts?

I have a few doubts on how the process of refuelling a car in Britain works. In Spain, for example, most pumps at most stations are ‘prepaid’ ones. That is, you first must go in the petrol station, pay for the amount of fuel you want to refill your car with and then, lastly, you put the fuel (usually by yourself). But in this video, it is the other way around: you fill your car up first and then you pay. Could you, for instance, walk into the station in the first place and order for ‘20 or 30 pounds of unleaded’ (like we usually do here) or you just help yourself as much as fuel as you like and then pay for it? Thanks!

Tesco has a great thing where can specify how much the pump will fill your car up by.

Big up Derby lad

Do pumps always click and stop when the tank if full?

Any help with the diesal one been to a few petrol stations and the pumps keep on clicking. Even when I’ve just started filling up

How can we come to know that How much fuel for a car is maximum.....please help to identify both minimum and maximum level for any vehicle

So did you pay before or after fueling?

Just a pointer , theres a latch on the in side of the petrol cap flap so you can rest your keys on the hinge

Thank you

So the pump shuts off by its self? I was wondering how do you know how many gallons to put in

Thanks that was helpful

wow - great car to learn to drive in! Surprised that the insurance for teaching learners in it isn't astronomical! Impressive economy for the performance though! Could you make a video on deciding between getting a petrol or a diesel car? Most instructors seem to be using diesel - I learnt in a ford fiesta 1.6 tdci which did more than 65 mpg a few years ago. I suppose if you chose diesel it would be less enjoyable for you driving the car but would save you a fortune on fuel for lessons.
