Havent posted on here in a while, but bought a BMW 330ci auto last month (seem to be a trend on here atm!) This is the only picture i have of it atm!



Basically though I keep getting a burning smell when i'm stationary. Maybe burning oil? Its coming from under the car in the middle. Its seems to go though once i start moving? Just wondered if anyone has any idea what it could be??

Was going to say not the overuse of the Indicator then?

Anything to do with the exhaust?

Nope theres no EML lights, and all oil and coolant levels are correct too.

I think it must be something to do with the exhaust then! Dont think thats covered on the warranty
