posibaly exhaust gasses seeping from your exhaust manifold but this fault should have nothing to do with air con!

its probably the clamp at the top of cat/particulate filter. It could also be due to filter being blocked.If you lift bonnet you will see traces of soot at front around heatshield if this is the case.
