Default Trunk Smell Like Turd

Happy New Years Peeps.

Ok well my trunk doesnt smell like turd. But at times after driving I would open my trunk to get my things. Often times there would be this exhaust smell or something like that.

This reminded me of when I had my M and I would smell this as well. It turned out my Supersprint exhaust hanger was broken slightly and the exhaust was going up to the trunk. So knowing this I checked my stock OEM exhaust and there is no visible sign. So I have no idea what the hell it could be.

The only other thing I could think is that my tires rub sometimes, but that wouldnt make the trunk smell right? I sorta smell it from my rear wheels as well, but again my tires rarely rub and I would think the smell would've gone away with the amount of driving from the time it rubs to the time I stop.

Its just starting to bug me lol.

I would look under the carpet, tool area in the trunk. See if there's anything where exhaust gases could possibly seep through.

check for water too. often times the gasket for the vent that the bumper covers up dries up and cracks alowing water to seep into the trunk under the carpet.

There's this one way vent thing with a rubber flap right above the passenger side exhaust outlet. Backdraft I'm guessing. Dig under your carpet, below the passenger taillight.

Either that, or because the driver smells like a turd.
