TVT Supercharged January 28, 2015 Share January 28, 2015 Do you know what is the capacity of your car's fuel tank? If its over this capacity, then maybe there's a leak somewhere.... Cos if you count by litres of petrol pumped in, then the price of petrol increase/decrease does not matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVT Supercharged January 29, 2015 Share January 29, 2015 my car fuel tank capacity is 45l. Then how can you pump up to 50 litres ?? Unless you can prove that the pump indicator at the petrol station is faulty.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kklim Supercharged January 29, 2015 Share January 29, 2015 Then how can you pump up to 50 litres ?? Unless you can prove that the pump indicator at the petrol station is faulty.... Probably the capacity specified doesn't include the buffer. Was 8 litres in my previous Hyundai Matrix. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice a petrol smell when you stand around the rear of your car? My friend's avante got a leaked fuel tank, at that time, he noticed his FC dropped from 500+km to only 300+km, sent to the workshop and mechanic spotted a small crack at the fuel tank.

keanie Turbocharged January 29, 2015 Share January 29, 2015 my car fuel tank capacity is 45l. If ur tank capacity is 45L, then max is 45L. But not possible to pump 45L cos ur fuel empty light will on when d tank left about 10-15% fuel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashbang Turbocharged January 30, 2015 Share January 30, 2015 You can pump 5L over the max capacity?? You should be seeing a huge river of petrol flowing out from under your car..... unlikely to be undetectable... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
