jayhead000 Location: Galveston Texas Drive: Vino 125, '05 xB (wife's)	Smart burning smell? Don't mean to alarm anyone, but did your car give that "motorcycle-break in/ clutch bruning smell?" just curious. It has stopped now (after 200 miles), but still. It doesn't seem like anything is wrong, because I may get 40 mpg on this first tank I figure it was just because it is new. My matrix did that a little bit just not as much.

jefferios Midwest Club Organizer Location: Duluth, MN Drive: Blue '08 Passion My SCOA Gallery	Yes, it happens to me as well. Especially when there is road spray. The rear ain't too fresh.
