just to let you know - i insisted they replace the seal that separates the battery and heater area from the engine. this was 2 days ago and i don't seem to have the fumes coming in to the cabin anymore. the garage has also noticed a fracture in the new bosal cat i had fitted a few months ago (...

Hi there all - and thank you again, i have just been over to the car and noticed when reving i can see a whole load of diesel or oil came out of the exhaust and splatted on the ground. I'm guessing it was diesel. Had a look at the seal and that seems fine but the actual cover to the battery...
