Smells like teen transmission fluid?
 

Nah but for real I started my car this morning and it smelt like straight transmission fluid. I drive a manual. Also I didn’t drive it yesterday but the back it down the driveway and didn’t have this problem. I also didn’t smell it until I started it up.

With no fluid out out, it's less dangerous
Figure it out now, entertain us
I feel interested and quite curious
Here we are now, entertain us
A loose drain plug, an oil leak, a mistakeo, my libido
Yeah, heyyyyyy

How many miles are on your car? Is there any other issues with the car?

Here is my TOB with the sleeve/cover broken off and the fluid was missing from the bearing. There was a smell coming from the transmission area when this was leaking before it finally broke.

43351 miles. And normal wear. Normal gear grinding like all the twins. I only smelt it this morning and it was gone after driving to my first job. I’ve probably driven 35 miles today and still no smells. I just thought it was weird.

I do however drive my car fairly hard, but I don’t notice any problems honestly.

You have low miles, so I doubt it is the TOB, but just pay attention to it. Other smells that can smell like oil is a belt slipping/burning, rubber/plastic burning against the manifold/engine, oil dripping on your exhaust system, possibly coolant hitting the exhaust system (possibly normal overflow/drainage from hot weather) and driving behavior like slipping the clutch by depressing it slightly and giving too much gas.

Wow :clap:

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] good shit man. I’m going to ride with my foreman the rest of the week. I’ll look at it this weekend when I have time.

many of these cars have TEENY oil leaks that burn and smell. i think it just comes with the territory. check all the fluids regularly.

I'm afraid to learn how your libido might have caused this poor fella's car to smell like transmission fluid...

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low

I wouldn't worry about unless you continue to smell it.

Guessing you don't know the song. He is spot on.

Another gap in my life experiences - :bonk:

The good part is I didn't even have to change the part in response to him. Worked as is.

OK, I looked that one up first - :D

I know you think music died when your good buddy Mozart did but this is one of the great songs of the 20th century.

OK, OK, if you say so.

However, if it was so great, why didn't it make it to the top of the Country Western charts - :iono:

:D
