I have been chasing an exhaust odor in the cabin for a while now. At city or highway speeds, windows cannot even be slightly open as there is a strong exhaust odor enters the car. Also getting an exhaust smell with the AC on (seems recirc on/off doesn't make much of a difference), but not as bad as with the windows open.
'06 Jetta BRM, 145k miles, DSG. EGR is deleted (physically and tuned as well). Car is otherwise completely stock.
I have checked the entire exhaust, EGR plates, downpipe gasket has been replaced as well. There are no traces of soot anywhere. CCV connections have also been checked. TDI guru has looked at the car and can also not find the culprit. Car belongs to my mom and I would like to fix this as it makes the car uncomfortable to drive.
Any advice would be appreciated!
