turn the key to run so u have fuel pressure. then wiggle the fuel injectors around. like turn em from side to side. and look for sprays

I'm having the same problem but it ONLY happens after a fill up a full tank and have the sunroof open.

When I'm down to half a tank there's no more smell.

I replaced the Filler neck, gas cap and all the hoses on the tank and it's still there. I bet I have a pinhole leak somewhere on the top of the tank.

Mine was the washer on the fuel filter, a washer on the fuel line going to fuel rail.
