Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My car had a bad smell of “oil” in the cabin, not found anywhere else in the car, except from coming out of the air vents when the car’s had a good run. I had the drains cleared during a service and this seemed to clear it for 6-9months but it’s back again now. I’ve lifted the plastic covers in the trunk over the battery and cabin air filter but I can’t see anything resembling a drainage plug, or anything that might be holding something stinky. Any ideas?

POST 2Original post

There are 2 air filters associated with the air system. One in the frunk and one under the glove box on passenger side. Both can be checked / changed fairly easily with YouTube help. If these are old they may be your problem. Clean air boxes with soapy water whilst your’re in there.
