I have only really noticed it today! But the fumes are pretty bad! Also there is a hole in the boot that a bung has been remover which i think the fumes are coming up into the car! These fumes are very strong out side, is this something that can be easily sorted out??? :angry:

If the car is running rich it will smell a bit more than normal.

Does it clear after the car has warmed up?

Just sounds like its running rich. No harm in it, better than running lean.

But its giving me a head ache! Can my local garage sort this out do you think? Or do you need specialist equipment?

Maybe worth just having a good look at the exhaust for leaks first.

You need to be very careful as it may need the extra fuel to run safely.

Its going in next week for clutch fluid change, rear wiper doing what ever it feels like and a few other bits. I had Goodyear F1's fitted today, but hasn't rained yet! Dry grip is great!
