Turn on vents, exhaust smell in car?
Anyone have an idea whats causing this? When I turn my vents on, hot or cold, theres an exhaust odor in the car. BUT, it only happens when the car is sitting still. When the car is in motion, it goes away.
Could it be an exhaust leak? Or would it have anything to do with the exhaust being dumped before the axle?

When you're moving the exhaust gases flow off the car in trail of the car.....
When you sit still the wind can blow those gases towards the front of the car.......OR, yes, maybe you have an exhaust leak and when you're sitting still in NO wind, those exhaust gases go straight up into the engine bay and around the front end.
Being dumped before the axle just increases the chances some gases make it to the engine bay and front end area of the car.....
Put it in the air...start it up, and look for leaks.
