[QUOTE="LittleRedVan, post: 303054, member: 17366"] Thanks guys - especially Merlydog :) I'm paranoid about petrol and fume smells, leaks, creaks, everything! You don't realise how easy it is owning a modern car - get in, drive, get out and forget about it! I've saved up for my van for 20 years and I just want to have a long and happy relationship with her and I'm panicking and a little disappointed that I've paid ALOT of money for her. :? Well, my hubby's picking up a new petrol cap from Halfords for me today. I'm just about to ring the garage I bought her from (VW Kampers in Brighton) and I've found a few aircooled specialists near Wales, so I've got a few calls to make! There's no 'new' leaks under her this morning but there's still a slight petrolly smell near the tailpipe. I hope the joy of owning a van outweighs the headaches!! :| [/QUOTE]
