Natural Gas-like smell

Recommended Posts

Hello. New to the board.

 

I have begun to notice an odor coming from my Edge. It has a natural gas quality to it. It really comes through in the car when I have the climate on. When climate is off, it's okay. When I walked around the car today, it seemed to be coming from the front. Any ideas on what it could be? I know nothing about cars so any help would be great.

That is the PTU leaking, that is how mine smelled.

Thanks you igcitng. How do I see this? What did you do?

 

 

You can't really see it, the oil that drips out burns off right away on the exhaust so you likely won't see anything in the driveway or garage floor. I took it to the dealer told them I felt it was a PTU leak and they checked it. It was and they replaced the seals.
