Yes, most noticeable for me between 4/4-3/4 tank.Does anyone else hear their gas moving in their tank? I only notice it when I have about 3/4 tank. I have nothing in my trunk or back seat this is the first car I've ever owned that I hear this noise.

I came to an Accord from an 07 TL they really did cheap out on quite a few things....Yes, most noticeable for me between 4/4-3/4 tank.
My Dodge Magnum did the same at the same levels.

yep and around 3/4 tank too. Normal, albeit somewhat disconcerting when I first noticed it.Does anyone else hear their gas moving in their tank? I only notice it when I have about 3/4 tank. I have nothing in my trunk or back seat this is the first car I've ever owned that I hear this noise.

I understand the amount of extra material it would take like I said above my 07 TL didn't have this issue but then again the TL was a "luxury" sedan. Just more proof of how companies are cutting corners in order to save a buck.Every Accord I've owned dating back to the 6th gen has had a sloshing sound from the gas tank when above 3/4 or so. I honestly don't see how they could eliminate the noise without a ridiculous amount of sound deadening material above, and in front of, the gas tank. That said, it does seem to be louder in the 8th and 9th gen cars than I remember it being in the 6th and 7th gens. Coincidentally, I've noticed that the trunk floor liner has gotten thinner over the last few generations...
My 1991 Legend didn't have the sloshing noise, but it also had a very thick layer of sound deadening material attached to the spare tire cover in the trunk. It also didn't have a fold-down rear seat, meaning that there was probably more sound deadening behind the rear seatback as well.
Having owned the last 4 generations of the Accord and first-hand experience with all but the 1st gen, I've noticed the cost-cutting trend in many areas. The TL, like my old Legend, probably has a nice, thick layer of sound deadening underneath the trunk carpeting. Accords used to have that, too, but not anymoreI understand the amount of extra material it would take like I said above my 07 TL didn't have this issue but then again the TL was a "luxury" sedan.

Gas tank is under the back seat.Funny never hear it.
Must be that my trunk is covered in DB3 cut to fit under the trunk mat?
Under the seat is DB3 and Rattle Trap floors too.Gas tank is under the back seat.
