After filling up on sunday morning (3/4 tank) i noticed a feul smell, thought it was just a bit of spilt feul so i ignored it, sunday night it came back meh ok, so weird but thought nothing of it.
Today (tuesday) i drove to work, could smell petrol, coming home, petrol again, ive made about 4-5 small trips today and on each trip i could smell petrol.

It starts smelling about 3-4min after i start the drive and smells for about 5min then stop again, it seems stronger in the boot and in the rear of the car.

Feul consumption has gone up about 1L/100km (now sits on 12.5l/100km)

Any ideas?
best get it checked i wouldnt be prepared to say, i havent seen anything like this in the field so far, best get it to a dealer
