Default 2006 LS 3.5 & Exhaust has rotten egg smell

Car has 2,500 mile on it and seems at times to have a sulphur rotten egg smell, but not all the times and I do not smell it while driving the car. I have only used Shell gasoline.

Well, I have heard this before on other cars....I know it was a problem with alot of Cobalts... CHeck to make sure the Catalytic Converter is not clogged. I know the car is practically new, but sometimes they do go bad!

If it IS the Catalytic converter...it's got a lifetime warranty. I just had to replace mine recently on my 2001 and when I went to meineke...they said that it SHOULD be full covered. I checked with the dealership and it was. They replaced it without question. Just bring it to the dealer and they'll replace it free of charge.

Change the brand of gasoline for four fill-ups. There is a brand of gasoline which my Merc V8 hates. It will run great using any other brand!

Just wondering if you've had it looked at yet? It's been almost 3 weeks.
