    Poss the common leak at the back of the engine left hand side as you look at it there is a push fit connector. It leaks down the back of the engine and evaporates so hard to find its a cheap part I always carry 1 in the car.

    Why not just remove it and go to your friendly garage/motor factors and get a new O ring? Or measure it and get 1 online. A bit of sealant probably wouldnt hurt, but then you are just doing similar to what you have just accused/complained about a...

    It's a D4 you can re latch them but you need to remove the epb module to do it. You can also repair them. The fuel gauge could be a number of things the sender units do fail. If it reads empty it usually goes into safe mode and stops the engine...
