So I pulled up to pump for my first fill-up in the G37. The dashboard indicator came on during my ride to work, so during lunch my coworker and I stopped to fuel up. I hopped out only to find the gas tank missing. Or on the opposite side of the car anyway. I swing the car around, and go to open the tank. It doesn’t open. I come back to the car to look for the release switch. There isn’t any!

After a bit of laughter and searching every inch of the dashboard (I did find the trip odometer controls!) I reached for the car’s manual! Interestingly enough, the G37’s gas tank door locks with the car doors, so you have to hit the “unlock” button to unlock the tank as well. If I didn’t have the manual, I would have been completely lost. My cowerker was kind, though I’m sure he was laughing much harder on the inside.
