Hi there,


I'm new to this forum stuff,

But as stated above I drive a 2010 r56 Mini Cooper john cooper works with 34k miles on it.

I drove it home from work yesterday with no issues. And left to cool down like I do after every journey.

I started it again 2/3 hours later and notices a weird blowing/rattleing noise? And noticed today a strong smell of petrol when stationary? So to me this sounds like a possible cracked exhaust/cat?


Was wondering If anyone else has had this problem or anything similar? The car still drives and pulls well too!

Best regards

Matt

Welcome but this is a classic Mini forum.

You are likely to better off trying the forum at Mini2.com.

Good luck with solving your problem.
