Quite easy to get to using this method ... definitely recommend trying this first.

Had exactly the same thing happen to mine. In the end it was due into the stealership anyway for some other work so I let them do it. I had no intention of taking the bumper off myself
You'll be amazed but they didn't mug me off either!

Filled mine up last night and have the same problem of fluid dripping on the floor, except i can see that the tank is full. Whats the spout to the left of the main filler neck in the picture above?

Is it some kind of breather and if so i guess it should have a pipe attached?

It is an overflow pipe
