Hello everyone,
I am looking for some advice please. Had my car since mid Oct and love it to bits (1.2 Corsa before this) but now I have my first problem which has always been the reason I have bough brand new until now.
I have been able to smell fuel for a few days, first thoughts was the fuel which collects around the fuel cap. Then I noticed a fuel stain where I reversed park. Got down on my hands and knees and seen dripping. I would say a drip every second from under the drivers side footwell. My heart sank immediately
I checked it again this morning and the dripping had stopped :/
As it was a Sunday I drove to the only garage I knew would be open Kwikfit and asked if they could take a look.
The fella was honest and said its not a job they can deal with but did recommend a local garage and gave me the number.
I did take the warranty when I bought the car via Customer Protect linked with Halfords, I emailed the dealer and asked him to send me the booklet and all the other details. Car was serviced and MOT'd day I drove it away.
I drove to work which is 8 miles, remaining fuel dropped by 15 miles.
Could this be a filter? Fuel line or even worst. I have zero knowledge and can't take the car to the garage till thur and not sure when the warranty booklet will arrive.
Any advice would be fab.
Thanks
Mark
