The car is noisy. Has been since I bought it 2 years ago.
I have ruled out wheel bearings[new] and tires[summers or snow no difference]. The exhaust system appears intact but I will do a more thorough inspection.
Heat output is poor, part of which is likely a result of blend doors not sealing well [my bad].
Heater core was replaced last year and system bled but heat has always been poor. New stat and cts intalled.
For a number of months I have been smelling diesel when standing outside the car , but there are no obvious fuel leaks either under the hood or the car and FE is unchanged.
Just recently I started smelling diesel exhaust in the cabin when the heat is on.
And this morning the low coolant warning went on and the reservoir was below minimum again no obvious leaks. It took maybe 6 oz of coolant to top up as the prongs were exposed.
This car has an EGR delete.
Any connections?
