Got a full tank of gas Friday and got code P0456 yesterday. I pulled the seat and there's some gas pooling on the passenger side. taking it to my dealer tomorrow and see how it goes. Should be covered by the fuel tank warranty.

Well I do have a couple more updates. Coming home from DC, my daughter asks why did I put the hot air on in the back. Did a little more checking and found out the Heater control valve was bad.
Got a new one.
Replaced. No more hot air in the back of the car issues.
I got a sweet deal on some wheels to replace the stock AMG wheels..
18x8F et32, 18x9.5 R et35
I was hoping I could get that 9.5 wheel to fit up front and maybe do a square setup. That lip would look nice all the way around. But nope it doesnt really clear the top of the caliper without scraping. So I can run the staggered setup or put them up for sale. Not sure how I feel about them now; it was an awesome deal but I think I want to do a more aggressive setup. Maybe 19s. They are still sitting in garage for now.
Dealer told me to bring car in Thursday for fuel tank issue. Sounds like they are familiar with the issue and process of getting it fixed. I'll know for sure Thursday.

****ing photobucket...lets try this again
I decided to mount the wheels. I guess they are temporary since i'm still in the market for a more agressive setup. But they are still lighter and better fitting than the AMG wheels on my car.
wow thats a sh****y picture
Im going to post before I lose my info again.

Cant post any pictures but the TSW wheels were 27.8lbs and the AMG wheels weighed in at 33.8lbs. These weights come from my trusty bathroom scale. Its probably not exact but still shows how heavy the AMG wheels are.
