Been for a while smelling petrol inside the car on and off and when I am outside the car walking past the petrol filler cap you can also smell it sometimes. Last night I filled the car up with the usual Shell V-Power and when got home could smell it coming out from the wheel arch area. This morning I got underneath and car to see if I could see anything but can't, I can only smell it.
I unscrewed the 2 metal covers off from inside the boot area to show the top of the fuel tank and can smell it a lot! I also noticed that a few of the screws were quite loose and 1 of the plates was raised, probably the reason for the smell in the car!
I have taken a photo, does anyone know if their 850 tank looks the same ontop as this with the 2 main pipes coming off and 1 free, it seems this is where the smell is coming from and not just sure if this is a breather for the tank?
Does anyone have any info or help on this one to clear it up?
