Bill Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Hi all .has anyone got any ideas as to why I'm getting a stronger smell of full when I come to a stop.the car was ok yesterday but this morning I'm getting this smell is it due to the fact I was !Removed! freezing this morning lol or have I got a problem ?
stants Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Checked the fuel caps on tightly ? Which end is the smell coming from ? Fuel filler necks rust out eventually, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Greenmamba Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Check all hose clamps on fuel lines in the engine bay are tight - cold tends to cause contraction and sometimes leakage.
Piggysniffer Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 As mamba said, fuel lines under inlet manifold leak a little when cold, it's a known thing, may even have been a recall 🤔
