Radio and clock not working
Electric park brake constantly sticks on
Just had ERG valves changed
And top throttle (whatever it is calked?) valve changed
And replacement turbo pipe
Yellow engine warning light will not go out

That is where the fuel filter is - can be one of a couple of things.
1. The fuel filter housing is cracked.
2. If an early D3 a leaky hose joint on top of the filter.
3. The fuel filter if a twist on version, is loose
4. The water sensor at the bottom of the fuel filter has been over tightened and has cracked letting fuel out - or it has not been tightened and is letting fuel out.
So get under the car, take the cover off and check it out.
