02 GTI vr6. Should I smell gas after making a hard turn (cornering) with my car? I would think that the VW engineers would put some sort of baffles into the fuel tank to prevent the gas from running up the filler pipe. I know it's not my imagination and it has happened on less than a full tank. Is this normal? And it doesn't matter whether it's a right or left turn.
No you shouldn't and also you may have the MIL on or soon to come on. OBDII checks the fuel tank for vapor leaks at least once per day on startup. On another note OBDII can't check a fuel leak in the pressure feed side on the fuel injection system so I would look close at all the fuel lines for signs of leakage.
