Hi All

Just wanna know, when u start revving hard, do u have the smell of something like fumes or engine oil in the car? I have that smell whenever i rev hard. But when i cruise or accelerate slowly, i can be going at 130 but there is no smell. Is this normal? What is the cause? Will appreciate if you have similar experiences or have any answers. Thanks!

bro, if u car new? or did u juz swap ur exhust system? coz it will be like that when ur car is new or ur exhust is new... dun worry... also if im not wrong, rotary burns engine oil.. its normal... juz rem to check ur engine oil once in a while...

is the gear engage during your high reving? or in neutral, if gear engage most likely is your
clutch burn smell

Thanks bros for your advice. My car is auto, so it will not be the clutch. However, it is only 4 months old, so, as hellangel said, it is due to it being a new car. But, will the smell go away eventually? Or will it always be there?

Thanks again!

this is normal. when i rev hard i also smell the sweet atf and mine is 1.5yrs

hey dude... u will always have the smell... heh thats somethings good abt rotary.. muhahaha makes ur car smell like new everytime... hehe

It's more like BO. That's what my daughter says. And I said it's not me !
