Can you describe the smell, is it oily, acrid, sooty, electrical or what?

There are two duck bill rubber water drain bungs in the bottom of the plenum chamber which can cuae a blockage and flood the plenum chamber and cause water ingress into the car. However some garages remove these, incorrectly, to overcome the problem and that causes fumes to enter the chamber. To the top left of the chamber is the Pollen filter air intake and this may be your problem. The bungs can be seen from under the car either side on the gear box if they are there. If you use re-circulate and the smell is less that that would also point to this being the problem. Regards Peter
