hi guys . . . any one had exhaust fumes entering the cockpit of the car. If so did you find out why and could it be a sign the cat is on it's way out.

 

might be a leak of bad evap system

 

Check the exhaust system for leaks as well, this seems like the most logical thing to do

 

if its anything more than an exhaust leak you would get a cel. definitely for an evap leak you would have a cel.

 

thanks for reply's ... well i've had no cel lights so hope it's just leak from from a exhaust joi.... but as i don't no anything about he evap system did a little reading on here some threads talking about gas cap replacment..... just wondered about the location of it and what it looked like.

 

what a dumb *** i'am .... just clicked in my thick head .. you say in USA gas cap we say petrol cap in the UK and im asking what a gas cap is what a dick...srry for wasting a thread.

 

What?!?! lol no not at all!!! It took me I don't even remember how long to figure out what the heck a "bonnet" was on a car!!! lol I remember standing around my car thinking what the devil is a damn bonnet?!?! lol

Thus the god of dialects laughs!

 

I had one of the little rubber flaps in the trunk go bad, fumes and in the winter salty misting (the salt stains is how I found it). They are right behind the rear wheels on the side. Check that, I made a new one out of rubber in 5 mins, no probs now.
->I run catless and premix, I smell that smell

 

to OP,

i have had an sulfuric exhaust fume entering cabin, and its from yhe exhaust...namely the catalytic converter.

its awful in the morning, and it enters into the cabin on hard accelerations. its pungent enough to you uncomfortable and make your eye water.

you can try complaining at the dealership... as i have before with no success.

switched out for a high flow cat. fixed.
