We smell gas every time we stop the car and get out to go in some place. The car has been maintened well.[/quote:dbf2704dff]3
From my experience with my 850 turbo, it is one of three thing or a combination of all three. First you have a simple fuel leak from a hose or line under the hood. Have your car running and rev your throttle from under the hood and look for small leaks. You EVAP equipment is going bad and not sending the unused gas vapors back to the tank. You could also gave a PCV failure resulting in high crankcase pressure. I will bet that you just have a small leak under you hood just like I did.
