Waiting for some other parts to arrive before the car goes back for a second attempt to cure. I'll update if they ever figure it out.


After the car's second stay at the dealership they have decided they can't find the source and are hoping it's something still breaking in.

Dealer said Toyota have been notified and they didn't have enough data on the issue to offer a solution.

I'm to keep them updated of any changes :mad0260:

What does the clutch smell like? (lol)
Rotten eggs?

Like a combination of being behind a diesel truck and a tractor trailer's burnt up tire.

The coating smell is a melting plastic smell.
