Fuel Leak

Featured Replies

Yesterday on leaving the car I could smell petrol . I took a look underneath the car and could see a small pool of petrol dripping from the rear of the car just in front of the offside rear wheel .After careful examination it looks like petrol is dripping from what I can only assume is the fuel pump . I don't know if it's just a loose connection or in fact the fuel pump is on its way out, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cost of replacement ?.

I own an Octavia 1.8 T. L&K model.

Many thanks
