    Missus has a 2012 Focus 1.6Tdci, previously had an issue with diesel fumes coming into cabin, outlined in this post.

    She was driving today and said there's a diesel smell in the cabin that gave her a headache. Looked at engine bay with engine running, couldn't see any spilled diesel, although some of the leak off pipe clips were rattling a bit.

    Could it be the retaining clips for the leak off pipes? Don't see how that'd cause fumes in the cabin though, maybe the injector clamps being loose I know there's issues with them and they had been removed recently.

    Copper washers were done shortly after buying the car. So I'm not sure what the issue is, there's no visible smoke but there is definitely a smell and can hear slight chuffing. Maybe washers again? May not have had the seats cleaned properly so are leaking exhaust again? Video attached for anyone that can provide some assistance.
