Hi
Hoping someone here might be able to help. My very well intentioned mechanic who did me a lot of favours recently to resolve issues with my CLK did a full engine clean and degrease.
Unfortunately however the smell of engine degreaser coming from under the hood is unbearable at traffic lights with the windows down and I cannot use the blower or A/c at all as this just blows toxic fumes into the interior.
I took the car to a detailing place and the guy did a low pressure wash of the entire engine bay with a little basic detergent but the fumes are still horrific.
Any idea how long this will take to go away or should I do something else?
My mechanic said he will clean it again with the pressure washer in a few days but I am unsure as to whether this will be enough.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks a lot.
Paul
