Yes, a bad or malfunctioning oxygen (O2) sensor can potentially cause a rotten egg smell in your car. The O2 sensor is responsible for monitoring the oxygen levels in the exhaust gases and providing feedback to the engine control unit (ECU) to adjust the air-fuel mixture. If the O2 sensor is faulty, it can lead to an imbalanced air-fuel mixture, causing the catalytic converter to work improperly. This can result in the release of hydrogen sulfide, which produces the rotten egg smell. If you suspect a bad O2 sensor, it is recommended to have it diagnosed and replaced by a qualified mechanic.
