You gotta remember that petrol Evaporates and turns into a gas quickly so maybe the fuel isn't technically leaking outa the car but the fumes are... If you get me.

Shut it u stupid little f**k, what's the point in posting in all my treads being such a c***? Least I can afford a gti180, and to get the cam belt done!

So apparently everyone knows my financial situation? If I wanted a 180 I would have bought a 180 simples Smile

sounds like something i'd do! haha!

is it only when the car is running, or all the time?
my cars got the problem of a de-cat and dodgey lambda, over fuels like a *Censored*

smells like neat fuel, and it lingers in the car for ages after.
but not gonna bother looking at, jus bin it and get my new 206 Very Happy

there should be a round cover for petrol pump just underneath the passenger seat, check the seal on that. Another thing u can do is to adjust the air-con setting on recycling in car air then extracting from outside to find out if it is coming from inside the car

You havent filled up and spilt it down the side of the car have you? Only other cause i can think of is a loose or disconnected pipe from the charcoal canister thats located in the front wing drivers side.
