Description of the problem | I have noticed on different occasions a strong smell of diesel exhaust coming into the cab of my truck. It does not smell like the exhaust exiting the rear tailpipe (post dpf/catalyst). Each time it has happened, it has been when i was stopped or moving slow in both forward or reverse (on a street, or backing into a parking spot). The first couple of times i thought it was a smell coming from a different vehicle, but then i found that it was happening when there were no others around. I did a quick internet search, and it seems as though this is a widespread issue. |
