I too have an 07 C6 and had the same problem. I took it to the dealership and, of course, they found nothing wrong!

Thank you for the tip. Next time I fill up I will try to invert the nozzle and see if it works for me.

I have a 07 and have no problems with mine. Every now and then I get a gas pump handle that is touchy and have to adjust the fuel nozzle a little bit.

I tried the upside down nozzle bit and it works. Weird!

Thanks.

It does the same thing as pulling the nozzle out a little ways (1/2 to 1 inch should do the trick).  Try that if you don't like turning it upside down.

My 05 is picky also,, the upside down thing works.. Next time I am going to try pulling it out a bit. Not all the time, different gas stations different problems. Some times I get a full tank and then some. Mostly almost full not all the way. Last year when we went to Hampton Virginia for the convention, it was about ever other tank full. I just have to deal with it..
