Engine Smoke smells inside the car
Hello, my R107 280SL 82 has a permanent engine smell in the cabin, it increases when the Air Conditioning is on. Is like the smoke from the engine comes in through the dashboard pipes?. Driving it is like breathing fronm the exhaust system.
Any suggestion about this?, what can it be and how to solve it?.
Thank you in advance

Well for safety, the first thing you or your mechanic must do is check underneath for any exhaust leaks. Might be easy as leaks will be loud. Good luck. You don't want to be a carbon monoxide victim.
