Another "Weird smell" thread. 3,500RPM and up.
So for about 2 weeks ive been having this burning/exhaust type smell coming into the cabin after about 3,500 RPM and up. Im pretty sure its not the clutch. Its not slipping. I thought it was one of my oil leaks burning, but i recently fixed them and its still there. I checked the coolant tank also, doesnt seem to be leaking.
Im about to go check my header, to see if it could be cracked up top? Might as well take a look. I check some other werid smell threads but havent found one like this.
Remember its only from 3,500rpm and up, and not only when boosting. I tried bringing the RPM's up without haveing the BPV close and the smell still came in around 40 mph.
