After almost 47,770 miles of totally trouble free driving, my 2017 VW Alltrack has developed some weird symptoms. First off, let me say that no codes have been set and no lights have turned on. Problem...after a 100 mile drive last weekend, the car smelled really hot when I pulled into the garage. Upon opening the hood the front braces that run from the fenders to the front metal holding the radiator, intercooler an AC were very hot to the touch. I never saw that before. And overnight, there was a smell of gasoline in the garage. And to top it off, my mileage fell from about 35 to 31. It seems almost like the turbo may be putting hot exhaust into the compressed air side of things. The dealership went all over it but with no codes or lights said to continue to drive it. They could find no signs of any gasoline leakage at the engine or under the car.
