Re: Gas leak?

Not sure if this is your problem, but I was getting pronounced gas odors before I got my exhaust manifold/cat replaced. It had a crack in it and I assume that's why I was getting the fumes in the cabin. Since replacing, the smell has gone away.

Re: Gas leak?

Are you actually smelling gas or just the exhaust?
