Strong fuel smell turning hard left with full tank
Posted: 21 Apr 2014 11:27 am
So I use the 360 for a recent trip... and there's a problem
Noticed that when cornering hard left with a full tank of fuel there was suddenly a strong fuel vapour smell inside the car. I actually stopped to check if there was a leak but couldn't see anything obvious. After reigning in my roundabout entry speeds, it never did it again - but I'm presuming this could be due to perished breather hoses behind the C-Pillar perhaps? Or could it be as simple as the fuel running back out of the filler cap!?
Does anyone have any specs or decent sources for these hoses and any diags of the system? I'm sure I saw some around the forum years gone by but the images don't seem to be hosted anymore
