Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I know there has to be a leak or tube disconnected somewhere but my mechanic has never been able to find it.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2002 996 turbo has a problem that has been bothering me. The gasoline will not auto-stop when filled to the brim, so the gasoline will overflow a bit. And there is a strong smell of gasoline fume around the car where the car is parked. I know there has to be a leak or tube disconnected somewhere but my mechanic has never been able to find it. Does anyone have similar experience and can point me to the right direction? Much appreciated!
