Fuel leak / smell
Noticed recently that when I've had my S40 running for a few minutes / or taken it for a short drive, when the bonnet is lifted there's a distinctive smell of unburnt diesel. Removed the top cover and there's very minor weeping from the injector pipes, but it didn't seem to be enough for it to cause such a smell... I've had a look around and can't see any other obvious leaks from the engine or filter housing etc, so I shall just nip the injector pipes up.
Is there anything more sinister this is likely to be that's a common bugbear on Renault F9 engines?
