Seal almost gone ? (help !!)

[Metal MP5]

Last night i was driving with some friends. at one point, i drove up next to the other car and asked something. I was doin about 50 mph, downshifted in 3rd and floored it to pass him.

About 5 mins later we stopped and 2 of the guys in the other car told me there was an oil-like smell comin out of my exhaust when i passed them and that there was probably a seal about to let go.

Anybody else had this happened ? I guess it happens when you drive too hard ... i go to the track once a week so i'm sure that didn't help. but anyway

anybody got an idea ?

have you smelled it your self? it might of just been some uber rich msp stank

yes if you have done any exhaust work to your car you are smelling the gas coming out of your exhaust probably. Mine makes plenty of black smoke w/out the cats and its smell real skanky

mine smells like ass, no cats and an extremly rich car will smell like that..

^ ditto

for some time i was actually scarred that a cop (driving behind me) could smell it.
i was also shaking when, on a red light, a cop pulled up next to me.
my car stank without cats.

my car is still completely stock ... nothing was done to the exhaust

i know that removing cats will most likely cause something like this, but it isnt my case. I also thought maybe it was because our cars run mega rich but i know the guy knows what he's talking about so i thought i'd ask you guys

one thing is sure though ... ill ask my dealer to look at it next time i go

thanks for the replies =)

my car is still completely stock ... nothing was done to the exhaust

My friend has a MSP with an Intake and stock exhaust and it smells worse than my car does with no cats... It puffs black smoke and smells so horrible i have to try and not choke. It could just be the nature of the beast that makes it do that in your car.

I saw my friend's MSP shoot black smoke last night and he didnt do anything to his exhaust

FMIC / Intake / ~10 to 12lbs of boost but a stock exhaust. So i dono ... i'm still gona ask my dealership to look at it. Cuz now, when i'm standing still and rev the engine to 3000rpm i hear a kind of rattle like if something was loose in the engine bay. I noticed this last night when i was at the track. So i'll definetely get it checked or fixed before my FMIC is installed
