Has anyone here > experienced such a problem? A TiD I presume? I've noticed it occasionally, but not the smell getting inside the car - my TiD has the ACC heater so maybe this stops it. Do you have ACC or a manual heater? Try putting the heater on re-circulate and see if that helps. Alternatively go for longer runs which blow the smell away and let the engine heat up properly. Rob.
