Maybe its a common thing - hopefully someone on here has a suggestion.
Since we bought the car I've been brimming it every time I get fuel. Rarely ever let it get to the quarter mark before filling it again.
However last Sunday it went lower than it's ever been and took 47l to fill (twas pretty much on fumes).
So over the following few days I noticed that the fuel gauge is barely moving. 70 miles the first day - needle stayed at full. Another 70 the second day ... tiny bit of movement. Day 3 and I've covered 210 miles - the needle would usually be getting close to the quarter mark but its only barely below the three quarter mark. From logging my consumption I know myself that its close to where I'd normally refill so this morning I brimmed it with €54. Have driven another 70 miles since and the needle is still on full which I know isn't right. :wtf:
May or may not be related, but over the past 2 weeks I've noticed a distinctive smell of fuel inside the cabin after I've filled the car. Usually disappears after I've used some of it.
Anyone any ideas?
