If you are getting exhaust smell from your vents this is probably as a result of corrosion in your heat exchangers. I don't know what they are like on a 912 but this is pretty common on a 911. You need to investigate the condition of them as somehow exhaust gas and air meant for the cabin are mixing.

Needless to say its pretty dangerous and bad for your health.
