Yes I have, it is a plastic fuel like looking connector with a white tab thing on each side, not sure if u push it in or pull em out to get it off. Pushing in didn't work and I'm scared of braking them if I pull them out.

sounds like one of those tabs that you just slide one direction to remove the edges from a slotted seat in the connection... try sliding the whole white tab in or out. make sure you have the one connected to the pipe that goes up along the filler tube.

Hm. In my case it completely eliminated the problem. My car fills up completely without clicking off until it's properly full.

But hey, partial success is better than no success.
