Hey,
My recent issue of coolent loss is now completed. Now the car is running bob on.
Only issue I am having is in the car it smells of petrol. In the car I can't see no leaks. It don't seem to come from the vents or ac Anyone any ideas?
Cheers luke

Which engine? 1.2TSI 8V by any chance? If so, look for a broken PCV valve.

Edit:- from your previous postings, it appears that this is not your engine type!
