strong odor @ higher rpm's
 

Like burning electrical wires?

hmm not really. Just a strong odor almost engine or clutch..smell does not last long. And its only when I take the car to like 6-7k.

I've had a "burning electrical wire" smell in my last two new cars...and i drive my cars hard.... went away after a month or two.... I just assumed that it was machine oil or sealant burning off..... but damn, I must've stuck my head into the engine bay trying to sniff out the culprit more often than I should.... people in the parking lot must've thought I was crazy....

I think this was covered in an earlier thread. I believe the conclusion was that it was stuff that was left over from manufacturing was burning off. Nothing to worry about. Unless its a different problem.

thanks

I've a weird smell come from the AC When I'm WOT for a few seconds...

Are you abusing the clutch? No smells from my fr-s.. Had it on the circuit at 100 miles on the odo. Maybe try and locate the smell. Show the dealer?

Normal. Have it on my 2012 impreza, smelt it during frs test drive.

It's not the smell of victory?

I've noticed a smell of rotten eggs. Its very light but right after a nice pull up to 6,000 rpm in third/fourth gear I get a slight odor.

I believe its coming from the exhaust and somehow getting sucked into car.

I agree with ahausheer, I had the same smell coming from a 3.6l V6 Genesis Coupe when I test drove it HARD. Only had 150mi on the ODO so that makes sense. I don't think it's anything to worry about. Needless to say I bought a BRZ instead of the GC. :-)

Hydrogen Sulfide from the catalytic converter or possibly the battery. I wouldn't classify it as "normal" though.. I'm not implying it doesn't happen, but it doesn't happen 100%.

Awesome thanks for the response. The smell doesn't smell bad or like something going bad, just started to notice now since I have driving a bit harder. When I go in to dealership this weekend I'll have them look and then post results. Thanks peeps.
