Default Strong Fumes in Car??

Hi CL,

im having some issues with some fumes smell inside my car. This only occurs when it’s cold outside and when the “fresh air” button is used. If I’m at a stop light or stop sign the smell tends to linger more but as I go, I believe the wind is blowing it away. But the fumes smell is pretty strong. it does NOT smell like rotten eggs but more like burnt gas/oil. Kinda sour tbh.
Can I get some advice?
