Check your hatch/trunk seals. Ifthey go bad they cause a low pressure that will suck in exhaust from the back of the car.

what kind of exhaust system do you have set up? stock or aftermarket headers/h-pipe? if i were to guess maybe an exhaust leak somewhere between the headers & h-pipe. you need to get under your car and find it.

Maybe you should check for codes. If it smells that bad something may be wrong.

If you dont know how to check for codes or dont have a code reader. Theres a thread here that teaches you how to check the computer for codes using a paper clip or jumper wire and you can use your engine light or a test light and count the blinks.
