|  94 qualitaire estate 42,000 miles Hi there, I posted a few weeks ago about a siezed front brake caliper. Had to replace it in the end and is fine now. Only other slight problem now is a smell of petrol from around the petrol cap and another very slight petrol smell from an area in front of the petrol tank. Can anyone tell me if the access to the fuel pump or filter is from the inside of the car or if theres any known common things that I can check. I bought this car with only 42 k genuine miles on it to replace a dead VW to get me through three or four months. Would like to sort this out if I can. Any idea's please..  |

| Re: 94 qualitaire estate 42,000 miles Access to the pump is through an inspection plate under the rear seat. The filter is tucked up between the tank and the heat shield and can be tricky if the car isn't on a ramp. |

| Re: 94 qualitaire estate 42,000 miles I think a Qualitaire is a special edition of the GLXIe. Like Silverline, Blackline, Flairline. And I think there was a Favorit CD with a CD player or something? Suppose it is possible a fuel pipe has perished or a securing clip has worked loose?

| Re: 94 qualitaire estate 42,000 miles From what you say I'm wondering if the flexipipe part of the filler neck is maybe perished, or missing a Jubilee clip. |
