    As for Speedlab, I know the managers, and I think they would like to know what the problem was, so that they can correct the situation so that it won't happen again to another customer.
    I did asks for the results at ford pero wla nmn cla pinakita, they just said un ang findings nila. People at Speedlab are rude!

Can anyone help me out... Salamat mga bro.

    Addtional info:

    55T KMS
    Change Cam Pos Sensor 3 months ago.
    I read somewhere na sa ECU daw problem.
    what were the initial signs? nangangamoy gas ba pag start ng auto? i think i have the same problem with my RS, but usually i only smell it pag cold start in the morning, rest of the day ok na. i also noticed na lumakas gas consumption ko. my ride only has 20,000 kms on it so i doubt na loose compression yun. pa share naman contact details nung ECU repair man mo sa Banawe, pa check ko din yung akin.

    It's very rarely that it's the ECU that's the cause. In fact, with a busted ECU, a car usually won't run at all. Which is why I'm struggling to understand this case... because it makes no sense.

    Right now, your car smells like gas in the morning because the weather is very cold. Add to that the fact that we are experiencing our first bout of really cold weather with the new E10 blended gasolines... which collect water in the tank at night, and your engine really won't run well until it's warm.

    And the RS hates cold weather... from experience...

    Your fuel economy looks bad, too, because when the weather is cold, the fuel rail return closes, so more and more fuel is pumped into the rail and the tank level goes down. Once the rail warms up, the fuel goes back into the tank.

    actually it smelled like gas even during the warm months, but i can believe that the E10 blend probably has someting to do with it rather than the weather.
    i used to make 8 km per liter, but now i'm down to 5-6 km per liter. so parang the case of the injector not closing properly applies to my situation, same with your assumption with the fuel rail thingy i guess.
