Engine Stinks ! literally
I have a '99 max SE w/ 106k miles but ever since about 98k miles i noticed a very bad stink when i drive up a steep hill or floor the car getting on the fwy.
it smells like rotten eggs and its very embarrasing when i have chics in my car, but when i do im extra careful not to floor it and when i go up a steep hill im kinda screwed. i hate to go to the dealer since it usually cost me at least $300 for something like a brake job and getting my a/c deorderized etc.
also when i get new oil changes i just put in an additive for burning oil... that seemed to help but does not resolve the problem. is my baby getting old? anyone know why it does that????
