Burner Rubber Smell - Toyota Yaris Forums

AzianCuz · 12-03-2015, 09:42 AM

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?

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.
