AZ owners - hot weather gas smell?
Hi -
Now that its getting very hot in AZ, I've noticed that I smell gas when I start my car especially in the afternoon. I do have covered parking at work, but its still hot. I do leave the AC on, and the smell seems to blow in through those vents. Doesn't last long at all and car is running really well. Ideas? TIA |
i notice it in the morning as it warms up with garage door open....don't notice it in afternoon as i am sitting in my car. seemed normal to me.
|
I have the burnt electronic smell Abbid described in the afternoon when it sits in the sun at work.
The gas smell only in the morning when I start it up. |
afternoon smell
when i turn off the car, i turn off the a/c first as i am arriving to park. when i start the car, i do not smell 'burnt electronics', but i do smell the 'old a/c air' smell. will have to keep a lookoout, err..smellout for that burnt electronics smell....

Hmmm. I haven't had any smells yet. Abbid you keeping those officers at bay this weekend? ;)
|
I've noticed all types of unpleasant smells in all of my cars especially in AZ and there not coming from me or the Mexican food I commonly eat
It's my understanding that your supposed to start the car, give it a chance to get going, and then turn on the AC.. I guess condensation builds up and creates that nasty smell.. |
afternoon?
