2009 CL 63 fuel odor
Recently purchased a 2009 CL 63 and have had an intersting issue pop up.
After driving the vehicle for awhile, I park it in the garage and the vehicle gives off an overpowering fuel odor that goes through the garage into the house. It's so bad that my family is affected by it in the house.
Anyone familiar with this issue? Thanks in advance for any input.

First off welcome to the forum!
As far as your problem goes have you checked for any fuel leaks under the car? Sometimes the fuel wont make it to the ground due to evaporation but the smell will be very noticeable when standing still and not as much when rolling. I had this happen to a Toyota and the leak was nearly invisible for a couple weeks.
Best bet is to have a tech look at it on a lift.
