burning smell above 85?!
when i run the car above 85 or 90 theres a burning smell like burning plastic or rubber....ive stopped the car before and got under the hood but it would stop smelling and i couldnt tell where it was from. the car makes no bad sounds or anything like that...

I've had the same situation with my car for over three years now with no resolution. I'd swear it's coming from under the hood, but like you, when I pop the hood... nothing. The only thing I can think would cause a rubber burning odor is the serpantine belt heating up from the friction of everything it's spinning against at high speed.
I also ran over a plastic trash bag once; wrapped around my exhaust and is now a permanent part of the pipe.

when my t/a was in the body shop a few weeks ago, i got it back and they hadnt taken all the paper (i guess they taped it up there to label things) off my exhaust ... had to scrape some of that crap off.

not sure....i was thinking it could be some of the front steering because when i just drive regular, theres one clank or thud when i turn the car from side to side....im tryn to find out what that is now, but it also could be something buring at a speed
