Has anybody had the same problem as me.....???
Following the countless other problems this A Class has had she has developed another one just before I want to sell it!!
My 2000 A160 Avantgarde has been whiffing of fuel when in 1st 2nd and 3rd. In Jan06 at last service and MOT my mechanic couldn't find any fault. Over the past couple of weeks the problem has got a lot worse and now stinks of fuel especially if any of the fans are on / vents are open. It has been back to the garage and they managed to recreate the problem and have changed the jubilee clips on the fuel filter. This has stopped it for a week now the problem is back.
I am determined not to visit my local MBdealership as all 5 that I have dealt with previouslty have proved their complete lack of customer service, overcharging, etc etc suffice to say I would never ever buy a Merc again.
If anybody has had a similar problem with their A Class or knows what could be the cause I'd be grateful of any guidance
