joeleodee Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I haven't heard of the clutches on the TC in a 5EAT smelling, but maybe. Any modifications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j255c Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 check your crankcase and pcv breather hoses, if one of them is crimped you will have a stinky car and have a burning smell after under heavy engine loads. 06 TB EVO IX SE stock turbo monster subaru hater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
