As some of you may have been aware i had my injector recall on my car about a month ago and when i got it back it had a the following issues :
HOWEVER the Toxic smell still remains and when i first got it back i drove down the road to starbucks ( Caffeine lover) and as i reversed it into the car park space the smell was so strong it came into the cabin and me and my GF had to get out a thought a was going to sufficate!!! since then it has not been that strong but that cannot be right, and i have driven about 10miles since then to get home and even when its just idling on my drive the smell is still very potent and is there although no smoke once warm. Any ideas please to what this could be ?
Yes i am chuffed the shaky idle seems to have stopped, but the fact my car smells so bad all the time and is to me dangerously smelling fumes to be honest still means i am not completely happy and rightly so.
Could this be Turbo seals on the way out? To be honest it could be the smell of burning rubber such as seals.
Any Input at all would be really appreciated
- Shaky idle
- White smoke on start up ( Very toxic smell )
- Some loss in power in first few mins of running
