Hello,

when I fill gas tank to the top it starts leaking. After about 5 liters it stoped. I noticed that in corners it starts leaking again... After about 10 liters it stops leaking completlly. Anyone had the same problem?

Thanks!

Hello,

I opened the plastic cover under the back seat and find a lot of fuel round. When I press the midle part, where the conector is, it starts to fluding round. Is there any gasket or something?
Will film this later to showe what I mean...

Anyone had similar problem?

Thanks!

Undo the big black donut there will be a gasket under this worth replacing and doing donut back up again tight should remedy the problem:agree:

If you need I keep new gaskets and fitting in stock for them.

Thanks
