Exhaust fumes entering the cab ?

Does anybody have any tips on keeping exhaust fumes from entering cab when stopped at light.

Check your up-pipes for leaks, and close the rt rear vent window.

Re: Exhaust fumes entering the cab ?

you should never have fumes even with the vent winders open unless you have a good tailwind. My opinion after 150K miles of driving an X. I would definitely look at your exhaust system.

I'm on WVO and occasionally get a whiff of exhaust stopped. I have an aftermarket exhaust and assume it is a tight fit. I did not install it though. Maybe I should have it looked at.

Re: Exhaust fumes entering the cab ?

with wvo thats a bit more common its basicly a combination of the seals being older the small cracks that air gets in

and the smell of wvo burning is more noticible than diesel so it will be more prominate

my truck running diesel i have the wings open all the time because the exhust dumps out under the bed but hey thats what i get for not getting good exhust

just look for air leaks
blast heat and drive when its cold out that will tell u
then adjust the weather strip
