yup... does it matter? |
I have this kinda burning smell whenever I push my car since day one. Relax, it's found on every RX8.
|
I used to have that problem few months back on occasions when I drive hard ... don't encounter it nowadays though ... my mechanic told me the reason before but forgot what it was already ... Nothing to worry about though ... my 8 still runs fine ...
Any bros know what the prob is? |
It is quite normal this smell comes about. Just try sealing the aircon intake permenantly and the smell wil disappear.

Had the same problem too.
Was told by my SE could b from the new brakes.... Went around smelling the tyres ( like a dog ) only not duin wat it would hv done next..... :D Sent car in today 4 some touch up. From mechanics --- could b unburn fuel reacting with the coating in the exhaust. Once the coating stablelised, the smell will go away... Dunno true or not... :confused: |
false..i presume... cos i still had the same problem now n then when i rev hard......and my mileage already at 30k. duno wats the problem thou.. but believe that must be from the tyre.

experience the same burning smell too.
separately, when I just start the car and moving off in 1st gear, there is a light "klang" sound, not sure from where. anyone else experience that? only happens when car just started. |
i m thinking about sealing off the aircon intake or changing the filter wool to a higher quality one...
i cant take the smell... itz horrible... need to do something about it quick... any bad effects if i seal off the aircon intake? |

Just a thought....have you tried setting yer aircon at recirculate instead of fresh air intake? Wondering if that helps to block the smell.
