Engine Smell?

[WantACB7]

I just bought a CD5 and drove it for an hour and a half to get home fro mthe dealer. When i stopped somewhere to get food, i smelled burning rubber, or a similar smell. Im just wondering if this is a belt or needs oil or what? Any help would be greatly appreiciated.

[edit]I don't know as much as most people on this forum about motors[/edit]

you know some times me car randomley smells for no reason then its fine, just make sure nothigns smoking

maybe oil is burning onto the exhaust somehow, you may have a small leak.

Thanks to both of you. I'll check for some small leak. And Im sure it could just be a random smell. Afterall, it has been sitting on a lot for a while and then driven for an hour and a half straight at 70mph. That could be it. Should I be too concerned about the possibility of a small leak?

Ok, im not trying to scare you or anything when I say this, but you could have a cracked cylinder head or something could be wrong with your cylinder. I think you might be having the exact same problem that I have. Right now my car is in the shop because theres a hole in my cylinder head about the size of a dime. Like you i sniffed up that same smell too that you have.. (haha sniffed ) anywho yea, also because of that problem I experienced some smoke coming out from the exhaust too. At first I thought it was the timing belt too. But dont listen to me. I could be wrong about this. I dont really know that much about cars much less hondas ethier. PEACE YO!

It's prob. an oil leak. Could even be your valve seals. My valve seals are bad and after being on the highway for awhile @ higher RPM or after beating on it, I can smell it inside the cabin

How much would it cost to get the valve seals replaced or an oil leak patched up?
