the other day i drove up a steep hill, stopped at the top and the car was making a strange smell, not oil or rubber.

now whenever i stop the engine and get out i get a whiff of somthing which smells like a hairdryer/blow heater, you know the type, kind of electric filamant smell! :rolleyes:

any ideas? i dont want a fire!

cheers.

Seriously. :)

Mine smells like it all the time when I've blasted it or gone up a hill, like you say.

Doesn't mean it's on the way out though, mine was replaced earlier this year and it does it. You'll notice it if you're holding the car on a hill with the revs going at the biting point (no handbrake or normal brakes stopping you from rolling, just the revs).

i changed my oil last week (again!)

it went all over the block and various other bits when i took the filter off, the smell could be that no?

it never pongs under the bonnet, just outside the car and the vents!

i know it aint the cat as thats fresh.
