G'day everyone
First time post. Recently picked up a 2000 V6 90 series with 114,000 km on the clock. Very tidy car. Only issue I feel it has is the exhaust fumes. It smells a little rich to me, thoughout all stages including cold idle, and traffic lights after reaching operating temp, although no black smoke, and the tail pipe is clean as a whistle.
I've done a bit of reading through the older posts here and taken the advice to clean out the MAF with MAF sensor spray. But to no avail. I then realized that my particular model doesn't run a CAT or O2 sensors.
My question is to the guys that have the post 2000 model 3.4lt V6's - Do any of your vehicles have the same fume issue? Or is it confined to the non CAT 3.4lt's?
Thanks in advance guys. This forum is awesome.
