Hi All,
First off, you guys are the best in all that you do to help others. I think this forum is incredible, and the followers on it amaze me. I am a new user on the forum, but have been looking over the forum for years as a guest.
I currently own a 2012 Cruze 1LT with 41,000 miles. I've taken my vehicle to several different certified Chevrolet dealerships (3) in the area and none of them have been able to diagnose my problem (over 9 different service appointments).
The problem: when my car sits for 30+ seconds, the inside of my vehicle begins to smell of unburnt gasoline. It doesn't matter if the fan is slow or fast, and the direction of the air does not matter either. The car can be morning-started cold or errands-all-day hot, same amount of gas smell. The dealership technicians have stated "I smell the gas coming through the HVAC", but none of them know where to even begin to start looking. The only thing they have found is several oil leaks (which have since been taken care of) and a few coolant leaks. However, my coolant level continues to drop.
Any insight on this? I know so many people have had situations like this, but none exactly like this. Thank you!
