I'm going to be on here all day, since I've had so many problems with this car, and supposed to list "each"..

Probably 2 months ago or so I started smelling gas in my car. At first it wasn't a big deal, and I tried convincing myself that maybe I'm near a petrol tanker truck or gas station.

But then it got so bad that I had was choking on the smell, at one point almost throwing up.

I see that many people have had this issue. I had my boyfriend replace my sensors and also the air filter, that helped a little bit. Then he replaced the o rings and regulator and it has been fine since. I guess the problem is that the gas evaporates, so when you go to the mechanic they don't see the leak... from what I've seen the price for this from a mechanic would be $300-$600.

Ah, but of course in the last 2 months I've had multiple problems again, which wouldn't bother me a lot.. considering the mileage.. except I started having problems with this car a week after I got it (brand new 300 miles!)
