Fumes in cabin. Fuel smell in engine bay
Hi. I recently bought a g5 gti. It has a k04 and induction with downpipe. Problem is there are exhaust fumes coming into the cabin. It also has an over fuelling type of smell in the engine bay. There is also puffs of smoke emitting from the exhaust on start up as well if i sit in traffic and then pull away. I had the ecu reset this has given me more power however mentioned issues still there. Please assist wit possible solutions...

So instead of just resetting the ecu did they maybe check
Watertemp that it is seen correct
Manifold pressure correct
Fuel rail requested and supplied correct
Lambda sensor reading reasonable.
Is it stock, does it still have a cat?e
Look under the high pressure fuel pump there is a rubber pipe, those perish and leak.
