Recently ive noticed a smell like rotten eggs when ive been driving for a while.. x(

I think its coming from the Air Con but not sure.

Thought it cud be the exhaust but dont think so.

Has anyone come across this before and what did you do?

Many thanks!

It is fuel with too high a sulphur content reacting with the CAT.

Use low sulphur fuel instead.
