Is your tail pipe extending past the rear panel, if it is not the fumes may be going around the inside of this panel then into the car. I had this problem with sound drumming into the back seating area of my 147, after fitting a chrome exhaust trim, the sound went away from the car and now it's fine in the back. John, UK.

A dam? >What should I check??? The fumes might be being drawn in from under the bonnet. Check the manifold for leaks. You might also check all the exhaust gas re-circulation hoses and the EGR valve (don't know if the spider has these or whether they can be a problem - just a suggestion). -- Max Reheat (:o) - deselect Part Throttle Reheat to reply.

Make sure that all the potential holes in the trunk area are sealed. |
