got a smell which smells like plastic burning????????
thouught it was coming from by the induction kit at first but it smells worse by the drivers side wheel??
could my brakes be sticking... it does it all the time when you pull up at junction etc?
only started to do it 2 nights ago???

Can you replicate the smell then get out of the car to see if its coming from the brakes or something??
