I'm scared of filling to the brim as once with my VW my fuel tank started leaking right after filling to the brim. Maybe there's no connection but I'm scared.
I personally wouldn't recommend it. When the gas dispenser stops, that's good enough for me. I don't want to risk it by overfilling. And from what I've read online, it's not recommended anyway. I personally fuel slowly on the first notch. That's just my style. Kinda sucks in the winter when it's blowing like hell, but I've had the gas nozzle not stop and spill fuel all over my paint and the ground in the winter. So I stand by the gas nozzle and watch the pump. Better to be error on the side of caution.
