Burning Smell
Since last night, the heater started smelling like something was burning. At first, I though it was a friend's deisel truck next to me, but when I was driving, noticed that it was my car.
Now I opened the engine bay and no smell in there and went behind and nothing. When I checked the the ehaust tip, I don't know if it's me but I thought that the exhaust wasn't blowing out as hard as it normally does. The car is 2 years old and I have never experienced anything like this before. Only time I have (in terms of a smell different to this) was with the A/C, but making my own filter for the blower took care of that (which I did through a DIY on here before the hack). Only other thing I can think of is if the stupid speedbumps at work somehow managed to pinch the exhaust without me hearing anything (have heard it twice, but nothing recent). I was going to jack the car up today to check, but it was raining. I'm gonna check tomorrow and if that's the case, then time to upgrade to the Nitto midpipe. I have no idea. Anyone else experience something like this before?
