Description of the problem | Following ford's most recent "attempt" to stop exhaust from getting into the cabin, i did smell it again on 7/9 and 7/10. It was roughly one tenth of the strength of the last time i smelled it, but i still smelled it at 3500 rpm or greater going up hill after a downshift. Ford keeps trying to keep it out of the cabin instead of preventing it from escaping from the exhaust system. Can i be getting exposed to odorless carbon monoxide all the time and just smell the exhaust when the twin turbos put more air into the engine and the exhaust is undersized and leaks from the pressure? |
