    Hi! What are ways to remove the burning oil smell? I recently did an oil change and spilt oil. I wiped as much as I could but still get a strong smell. What can I do?

    Alright so I just got my vehicle fixed because it kept overheating. Was in the shop for a week. Got it back and rides well, the temperature doesn't go above halfway, but I still smell a sort of burning whenever I parked my vehicle. Should I be concerned?

    You should advertise your shop!
    Write your shop's phone and address in the video's description as well as a link to your shop's website.
    I'm in Hawaii Island and totally would take my car for you to take a look!

    Hello thanks for the video
    I’m getting an almost burnt coffe/chicken smell inside the cab. I don’t notice it anywhere else. For some context, I recharged the ac system with a can of ac pro 2 days prior to the smell appearing.
    Any idea what it could be?

    Thank you for this video.
    The smell started after the catalytic converter was changed.
    There is a sound on the backside of the passenger side like sand blowing or rust. Any suggestions?
    It is an aftermarket catalytic. The smell is like is coming from the exhaust and it is brutally cold so I need the heat own but the smell is bad so have try to keep it as low as possible.
    yesterday when I went to the store and I came back in my the smell was still strong.

      The shops for some reason like to leave the labels on the components unfortunately, you wind up smelling the labels heating up and burning off.

    Good video, there is a smell in my car that isn’t apparent at first. The smell affects my tongue, and it doesn’t harshly smell. I can tell when I’m driving my tongue always get this weird feeling and when I took it to the dealership to get inspected they didn’t find anything but I take that with a grain of salt they don’t usually do things correctly when you go. What do I do? Emission test ? Muffler place? Help please

  • @Istiak101

    Hello, how are you ? I am Istiak from Bangladesh and I find your videos to be very helpful to maintain my car. I own a Toyota Allion 2010 (JDM Car, Model Code: NZT260). I am getting a sweet smell from A/C vents only during driving in highway speeds (60+ km/h) even though inside air recirculation is turned on. When I turn off inside air recirculation the sweet smell goes away and I can smell the fresh outside air. My main suspect was coolant leak. I usually don’t loose coolant during my city drives but noticed a 1/4 inch coolant drop in reservoir after coming from a 400km trip. What might be the cause and how to fix it ? TIA

    what about a 'spicy' and or nauseous smell? not the usual 'to rich' smell. the car is a '74 maverick, and the engine is a 289 from a 66 mustang. carbureted, tuned and retuned over the last 20 years, this smell started a while ago and just haven't been able to tune it out..

    Good morning everyone I have a quick question. Why is it that when I’m driving normal everything is fine but as soon as I step on the gas hard I smell like a mix of smoke/ rubber smell for about 2 minutes. Does anyone know what this could be. And there is no check engine light or visible smoke. It’s a 2014 Chrysler 300 V8
