Terrible Smell Hard Accel
Hi Yarisworld,
I have a 2010 Yaris sedan 5spd MT, I live on the bottom of a mountain road so I have to drive up and down to get to school (grad student), last I started to notice that when I'm hard on the throttle to get up the hill I get a terrible smell. I can't tell where its coming from and it's hard to describe, its not brakes (I know that smell) and it's somewhere between an oil smell and a rubber smell. I only notice the smell when I keep my foot down (basically only going uphill for a long time). I'm not seeing white smoke, or smelling oil normally, and my oil level hasn't dropped at all. Also just clicked 125k miles and switched the spark plugs and didn't see any signs of oil burning on the old ones, so I don't think I'm burning oil in my combustion chamber. Was wondering if anyone has experienced this problem before and knows the cause. Thanks |
