hello everyone,2004 a6 with 62000 miles. I noticed a gasoline smell in my garage after I filled up at the gas station. There is no smell inside the trunk , cabinor under the hood. I used up 1/4 of the gas but the smell is still there. The strongest smell is near the back doors. Thanks for your help!

 

My 2002 2.7t broke the gas tank at around 86,000 miles and I got the same thing. Eventually you would see a puddle of gas below back door area when it gets bad enough. It was common with the 2.7 due to its multi tank configuration. Is it a 2.7t?

 

could be the seal around your gas cap ... audis have an evapseal ... usually a cel will appear if thats the case but if u really crank down the gas cap itll go away so that could be the prob ... when i had my 2000 a6 it was oneof a few issues

 

It is 3.0 . Around the gascap no smell.

 

hmm well id say ur dripping or leaking somewhere ... notice any spots or a lower level of gas when you get in your car ?? if not then its gotta be somethign with your evap system

 

this morning had gas smell in the garage, I had to put the car outside. I used the car for a 25 miles trip, later I looked under the car everything looks bone dry ( what ever I could see), So far no smell in the garage.

 

left the car in the garage overnight: still smells gas

 

ok let me as you a quick question ... is the gas can for your lawnmower in your garage ... LLOOLL

 

could it be your filler neck? Try to not fill it up completely, could be a cheap fix.. lol

 

only 3/4 full
