My father's car smells of something really bad! It's like a burning/nasty smell. As soon as you turn the car on it reaks, if you idle...you best be standing 20ft away. At random times the exhausts will let out a dark blue gas too.



--mechanics say it has to do with the chip? wtf no.



He keeps getting ripped off man!


PLEASE HELP!

Is the smell similar to that of a rotten egg? If so, this is due to a faulty exhaust systemand perhaps a faulty catalytic converter not doing its job properly.
