Hi guys!

When my wife's Cooper D is idling there is a strong exhaust smell in the cabin. Not noticeable when driving. The smell can be reduced by using the recirculating air button.

The more I smell it I'm thinking it maybe hot oil which isn't good.

I had a quick look under the bonnet tonight in the rain when my wife got home. I noticed what I think is oil sitting next to number 3 injector. If it is it could possibly explain the smell.

Has anyone heard/experienced this before?
