Diesel Refueling issue

Hi,

I refueled for the third time today. I finally succeeded in not getting fuel on my car in the process. The diesel nozzle is larger in diameter than a gas nozzle. There is a bar in the filler neck that is supposed to allow a diesel nozzle into the neck but keep a gasoline one from going in.

I have yet to get the pump past the blocking bar. (yes I have used diesel every time so far). This makes for really long fill times. How the Hell do you fill this car with Fuel like a normal vehicle??? I don't want to spend 20 minutes filling at .5 gpm for the rest of my life with this bimmer, beemer, car! Its a royal PIA.

Other than that, it is SWEET! Odometer at 800 miles and my 240 mile highway trip with two 16' sea kayaks on the roof yielded 25.0 mpg (calculated)
