Exhaust smell? Anyone
Does anyone else's exhaust smell like coolant/antifreeze? I heard it is normal for BMW to smell like that during the winter cold month's :/ ? anyone that could second that?

27 views and not a single confession? Okay, I did it over 20 years ago and I didn't like it. j/k

Best of luck to you. ;-)

Actually you should find that most modern cars smell like that, not that I go around sniffing exhausts, but Subie certainly smells like that just after S/U.
The smell is more pronounced or noticeable in cold weather because the condensable exhaust gases (water, carbonic acid, alcohol etc.) actually do condense as droplets (the grey/white vapour you see) allowing your nose to more easily detect them.
