Am getting exhaust fumes coming into car, this only happens when window is open, exhaust is not blowing anywhere either. cant see the fumes only smell and tast them, not very nice or healthy makes me feel quit sick. Any ideas why?

 

Thanks guys

You could be running rich due to faulty o2 sensor(s) perhaps

Carl .. did it only start after u fitted the 6 pot venom lights.. i had the same prob.. worked out that fumes were getting in thru the gaps between the inner and out light rings ... doesnt do it now

Im not sure, dont think so but wont rule it out, but only smell it when window is open.

 

How did you stop the fumes coming through the lights? i can give it a go incase it is this, but i had these very lights fitted to my other zed, didnt get it when they where fitted on the other car

hey carl

 

car has had new o2 sensors and cats, have you tried resetting the ECU? it may be worth checking the exhaust bolts havnt come loose,

Hi mike yes tried setting ecu might give it another go. Got bad vibration on car now to poss prop bearing, but thats way things go :)

check it isn't the wheel bearings, redline just fitted a new one, if there are any problems with them then PM me and i will give scott a call.

Carl .. i used black silicone right at the back of the rings and around the plate of the ring that joins to the fibreglass moulding so you cant see it from outside .. must be something to do with the Z's aerodynamics as the original lights have the black bitumen round them .. cant see that being just for water ingress as a small rubber seal would have been suffice .. but at the end of the day its worth doing esp when winter comes or u could end up with a very misted up car first thing in the morning anyway

..got the same prob bud ...fumes only when window is open and more as you slow down....
