Well, the smell could be from a spillage, which when your moving goes to the main petrol tank. another explanation is your mum.
it could be from your valve gaskets leaking oil. my car was smelling like that and my gasket seals were leaking, both front and back. after having them replaced i dont smell it anymore. KNOCK ON WOOD
Have a look for slow oil leaks - the oil leaks then when the engine gets very hot the oil burns.
A loud clicking sound coming from the front of your car when you are driving straight would be the result of a bad CV joint. This is something that should be checked out right away.
A burning smell from a car's brakes means that you are braking very hard or there is a electrical short circuit in the car. Another reason for a burning smell may actually be coming from the car's heater.
Since this morn my car has started shaking and not functioning properly. I can also smell a burning smell coming through the fans and the boot? Could this be the Exhaust?
More than likely a leak in the engine compartment somewhere..Especially if you turn the heat on and can smell you can be sure its coming from the front. If its only when the car is running then its probably along the fuel rail somewhere. If you can smell it just as strong when the car is off then its a line and your car probably does not get good gas mileage. start there or take to a mechanic asap! gas is way to expensive now a days!!
someone wetting themselves in the car because they couldn't get to a toilet quick enough
It is coming from the very front? That would obviously be the radiator. If it's coming from the right side (passenger side) of the engine it could be the waterpump, or simply a hose.My inner voice tells me waterpump.
You might have a gas leak in your front engine compartment. The heater pull in air from the front and therefore if you got a gas leak it will pull the smell in get it check asap.
your car just drank red bull
Have those two front tires checked out there might be a bulge or a broken belt in the tire.
