weird sound and horrible exhaust smell
it's 06 g35 coupe that is having these issues.
It's been a long time since it gave out horrible, stinky exhaust smell. The smell is so horrible that i can't stay idling for warm up in the morning. Everything is stock, used mobil 1 extended performance about 2000 miles ago, spark plugs were changed like 20000 miles ago, A/T, and the car has about 60000 miles. I checekd the oil level on the dip stick. It read between low and high. The oil was pretty dark.
I checked for leak but everything looked clean.
Another issue is that sometimes when i turn on the engine, i hear slight grinding noise under the hood or inside the engine.
What could be causing all this?

The car has only 60000 miles and the cats mess up? damn infiniti lol It's the cat not the sensor?
I forgot to mention this w the grinding noise. It only happens at start up, right after the engine turns over. It grinds for like .3 seconds. It's more like metal grinding then valve train tapping. THis didn't happen like a month ago.

Not to thread jack but I also have this problem at start-up but the smell usually goes away after the engine's warmed up. My car recently passed the CA smog test also so I think the engine should be running fine.
Do you guys think that theres a possibility of a broken cat because of the awful smell but passes smog test?
