Hi folks,

Sitting in the golf after driving back home from work I noticed a strange glugging noise coming from the back end. So I got out and crouched down by the rear drivers side wheel to listen and it seemed to be coming from the fuel tank, thats the only thing I can think of anyway!

I had filled the tank (not totally full) 10 miles previously so maybe that had something to do with it?

Anyone else had a similar experience?

Off to glug some beer! bed!

anyone?

Have you got aircon?

I get a glugging noise from it when i turn the engine off. Its normal i think casue my mates does it too..unless theyre both gubbed. lol

That might be it, cheers mate. What does gubbed mean by the way? Is it a Scottish term? lol I know what you're thinking, 'Bloody southerners'

Haha sorry about that, gubbed is the same as gutted.

hmm came to intrude as i have this noise but no aircon, noticed it a week or two ago thought it was just fuel in the tank bubbling away from the pipes or something more technical, left it down to if its not broke dont fix it, would be good to know why it sounds like my cars drowning.

Nothing to worry about, its probably the fuel breather system, its fully enclosed and filters excess pressure through a valve and a carbon canister, what you can hear is it working as the fuel cools down and the tank pressure drops.
