Sulphur smell, don't blame Toyota

I was walking through the parking lot into work. A co-worker came into the parking lot, passed by, waved and then WHAMMO! Talk about a rotten egg smelling machine......it was a '03 Honda Accord V6. My eyes were even burning just standing there while the car idled.

Maybe the driver farted as they drove by you :p


There seems to be a lot of new cars that have that problem, all because of all the emission standards they require now

Word. It must have something to do with new OBDIII emissions tuning and that most manufacturers tune everything to more stringent CA specs by default.
