Mine does it too, my DW describes it as an "earthy smell"
. But it only does it if I roll down our door windows when going down the road. Somehow it is pulling the vent pipe fumes in as the toilet remains sealed, and only when the black tank is in full "ripe" mode.
We always leave our roof vent open in the bathroom, so that apparently doesn't stop it.
I suspect it is just various pressure differentials with the airflow and likely varies from unit to unit.
