Fuel leak on a 2008 Lexus is250 in the engine bay!

[BenTingz]

Hi everyone. I've discovered I have a fuel leak coming from the engine bay on my 2008 is250. It mainly happens during a cold start but can happen while driving too.

There is a strong fuel smell coming from the engine bay whenever it happens. I've attached a video below showing where it's coming from.

Would anyone be able to clarify where this is coming from and how I would be able to fix it?

 

Thanks!

There have been 2 recalls on the IS250 due to leaky fuel delivery pipes/sensors.

Contact a dealer with your VIN to see if the work has been done or if you can get it done ASAP. Leaky fuel in the engine bay is a fire waiting to happen.
