yeah me too!!! only if i drive for a long time on the highways. smell like rubber burnning...i thought maybe my car was too low, but it have clearance..tires not rubbing.. you can only smell it from the drivers side.

Pony, you have indiglo guage install in ur car?

oil leaking, dripping on exhaust????

ib_jimmy

no leak...nothing dripping....i'm was thinking its could be that lil box(i think transformer) that the indiglo gauge came with....u can hear it buzzin a lil when i turn it on....could that be the problem?

Yesterday night all of a sudden I got a big smoke in my car. Let me tell you guys what happened; Yesterday morning I did HWY drive about 100km. No issues. It was fine. But temperature at outside I believe it was 35°C. Came home park the car and drove in the eve about 30Km but not Hwy. OMG when I stopped the car there was a big smoke. I got really shocked. I drove my TL for 4 Yrs now. I didn't have any issue like that. Oil life was 40%. Checked transmission was fine. Though it shows engine oil as 40% I checked that. I saw little less oil. Top up the oil yesterday night it self. Then again I inspect the issue soon as I gets up. When I carefully monitoring the issue, I saw a wet engine nut. I checked the other nut in the same place. all the nuts were dry. What i am thinking this may be the issue for this. May be this guy dropping oil in to the hot surface of the engine. Any Ideas ? My TL is 04 and 204k
