Engine Bay Rubber Smell
Hello, hope everyone is healthy and doing well. I have an odd burning rubber smell coming from the engine bay that gets stronger when the car is driven long or hard. Originally I thought it might be because my oil filter housing gasket needed to be done but I did that and the smell is still there. I've noticed this smell for months but it seems to be getting somewhat worse. It's an N51 engine with 103,000 miles. I also thought maybe valve cover gasket but when I did my spark plugs a week ago there were no oil residue on the coil packs or the valve cover itself. Not sure where it's coming from. Thanks everyone! I have noticed some oil residue on the top of the hood when I lift it on the part of the hood that faces the engine there's like thick black oil residue. Im not sure where this oil is coming from.
