Brakes can make a burning smell..... And so can clutch plates.

i know that it aint coming from the brakes...

and i know the clutch smell very well...

and yeh i been burning rubber but that ain't the cause...

any other sources that can cause burning smells?

e.g. could it be burning up oil??

You didn't spill anything on your exhaust manifolds or anything like that??

haha its not a plastic bag attached itself to your exhaust and is melting is it ..... mine burned for two days before i discovered what it was .... i ran into the mechanic all flustered cos there was a strong burning smell. He tells me he'll be with me in a moment .... and when i walked back to my car to wait for him .... i saw something white hanging from the bottom of my car ..... i was so embarrassed!! ..... i can be so blonde sometimes
