Our 2013 Panda 4x4 TwinAir leaks fuel onto the ground under the car if we fill it right up. And we can smell petrol for some time until we've run the petrol level down. Not sure at what point the smell disappears.
Our mechanic said he can't see an obvious place for the leak. All he can suggest is to try a new fuel filler neck pipe, because that's the most likely location. But they cost about £300 from Fiat.
I have no better ideas – other than never filling fully up again! Anyone had this problem? Does this sound like the solution? I don't mind paying if it'll fix the problem but it's an expensive gamble.
