So I've had my manifold changed at great cost neally 600 quid. Genuine Honda part . But this morning I started her up and got a wife again of CO . Any ideas? Was bout 5 degrees . 150k on 53 plate cdti. Accord . Doesn't smell behind engine anymore si I know it's sealed now. Pollen filter was changed with service probably a week before the manifold was done .
 
remove the pollen filter and check if the smell is still there, drive it down the road, don't sit in traffic with other dieseasels smelling up your air ways.
 
Check the seal just after the flex section on your exhaust. Mine was leaking like a mofo..

Is that an R5 turbo in your profile pic?

I'd say drive that instead - far more fun.
