Not a lot can be done apart from putting your 'recirculation' button on when idling... It's a flaw of the FBH not venting out of the engine bay...

Jump in start the car and hit the button for recirculate. Should stop it... Also anything over +5 deg won't activate the FBH....

Also check there is not an actual diesel leak from the high pressure fuel pump or a leaking injector which is spraying onto the manifold....it can give similar fumes and as it evaporates once it hits the manifold there are no real tell tale drip signs below the car

Thanks very much for the feed back does the FBH (my error) keep on running when the engine is switched I know it runs when the engine is off
One thing I did think that was hampering the exhaust was the build up of snow within the arches
But will certainly lOok at the HP fuel manifold for leakage
