After my car is warmed up fully, if I choose to accelerate aggressively in the following conditions:
-Prolonged, high revs say from redlining 2nd, 3rd, and winding 4th out partially
-Accelerating in 5th or 6th gears beyond just normal light passing maneuvers. For example if I choose to pass someone aggressively in 5th or 6th then it will definitely happen.
Anyway, in these conditions the interior of the vehicle will fill with a very strong exhaust odor. It doesn't seem to have the sulfuric quality of a catalytic converter type smell, it actually smells like raw non-catalyzed exhaust coming directly from underhood. The odor is quite strong and significant, and rolling the windows down only really averts it while they are down... as to say, you can't just roll them down to clean the smell out and then enjoy your AC again when it is 105 degrees out.
Has anyone else had this issue, any idea what might be happening here?
