So I have my S/C on Medium setting and when I WOT from stop to about 80MPH and after I just brake to park it. Once I do that I smell a strong burner rubber smell from inside the hood... Not sure what it is, does anyone have the same problem or know anything about this?

:iono:

Appreciate any help.

Your belt is slipping.

HA-HA I just got it re-tightened...? I wonder if it's my grounding wires or header. The smell seems to come from the right side of the 1NZFE engine. The belt side doesn't really smell. For sure it's a distinct plastic burning smell.

Might be your caliper piston that's staying engaged? I recall the plastic smell since I fixed mine 2 weeks ago.
