IF IT SMELLS LIKE... | IT COULD MEAN... |
BURNING CARPET | The drive belts could be slipping or it could indicate misplaced loose hoses rubbing against rotating accessory drive pulleys. |
ROTTEN EGGS | This is likely a problem with your catalytic converter, either having to do with the transfer of sulfur dioxide or indicating a poorly running engine. Have it checked out; this could cause your vehicle to overheat. |
SWEET SYRUP | Leaking engine coolant. DO NOT open the radiator cap while it's hot. |
GASOLINE | Any smell of fuel can mean a fire hazard--give this smell immediate attention. If it smells like gasoline, that's likely (but not always) what's leaking. |
BURNING RUBBER | This might indicate a problem with your brakes. You should have your vehicle checked out immediately. |
