burning smell....

[InvIs Inc]

hey guys dunno if i just being para here but i seem 2 be smelling a burning smell everytime ive been out for a speedy drive... cant tell if its tyre, oil, or clutch.

it shouldnt be clutch and it could be tyre and i remember asking some1 at bmw ages ago and he said nothing wrong with the car so its prob just oil cause it burns up alot of oil or summit :confused:

any1 else get the smell? lol

If it's tyres they'll be rubbing, you'll notice irregular wear and whatever they are rubbing on will have rubber on it. :)

Is your car new ? Do you have a new exhaust?
