    Filler neck replacement...

    I filled up to the brim and have had a slow gas leak ever since. We think it's the filler neck and/or the rubber between the tank and the filler neck, since this is the first time I've ever filled so high and first time smelling gas.

    He's suggesting replacing the filler neck since it's a euro filler neck anyway and probably should be converted to the US model because the nozzle doesn't quite get into the filler neck correct anyway, but worst case scenario, trying to repair the rubber for now...

    Anyway, wondering if anyone's got any insight, and anywhere to obtain a filler neck somewhere other than the dealer (where it runs $350)...

            Check the line that goes to the vent tank or check the overflow tube, mine popped off.
