First time user here. My 2004 TL has started blowing what smells like exhaust from the vents. this has just started happening within the last week. since the wx has just started to get cold the heating system is being used. having owned some old cars in my life, this would almost seem like a leaking gasket where oil is being burnt and the odor work itself into the ventilation system. But hey come on! this car is less than 2 months old. I'm bringing it in for service for loose/damaged panels tomorrow. I pretty heated up over this. Can't drive the car without having the windows open just so I can breathe. Anyone out there with this kind of problem? If so what was the cause and solution?
Thanks
I had the same problem with my 96 2.5 TL and it turned out to be the exhaust manifold.
I took it in to the shop and the mec. showed me that there was some smoke comeing out of the manifold wich was then leaking into the cab. I took it to the Acura dealership and it was under recall for my car so they fixed it for free.
