Truck smells like rotten eggs when idling in park or at stop light. Goes away when driving. Cant tell if its coming through the vents or not.

Save yourself some grief go by a new battery or service the one you have. I run duramax diesels and the charging system will cook the passenger side battery. If it a sealed battery can it and if it is a after market just service it with distilled water. Have a good day and good luck.
