Hi, New here, just picked this up.

That'll be the tailgate seal leaking and sucking in exhaust fumes.. CO2 sensor? MAF? not on one of those, far to high tech.

My pal followed me home and he said it was very rich smelling ? Ideas much appreciated ? Has an invoice for a new tailgate seal at RGA Porsche recently ?
 
Might be leaks round the rear lights - that's the other favourite
Play a hose over the back end & see where it leaks :)

Running rich - the AFM can be a problem, I believe you can fiddle around & change the track it runs on, although never done it myself. The DME temp sensor (cheap bosch part) can make it run rich if it fails (DME thinks engine is cold). What do the plugs look like?
