S/C and Turbo question - 04/27/07 06:39 PM
Hey I hope this isn't a dumb question....I try not ask those.....but anyways...I was wondering if you have a S/c or Turbo do you get a funny smell like something is burning? or is it just me, and some of my friends......I mostly smell it buy the tire...while the car is running, and when i shut it off you can smell it for awhile. Spanks!

What does the burning smell like?
Tires? Might be from breaking your tires loose from a stop
Oil? Did you get some on your manifold or something?
Coolant? Same as oil

if the turbo is oil cooled it could have a slow leak around the housing and be burning it off.

Leaking valve covers? Leaking oil pan? Bad PCV valve?
