What concerned me is that after i pulled over, i noticed a smell coming from either the engine or the tranny...couldn't tell where. do you think this smell is normal, being that it's the first time i've ever pushed the engine passed 4kish?
the smell is 100% normal, and don't change the oil till around 3-5k because the oil that is in the engine from the factory is a special oil made for break-ins. after that go amsoil full synthetic ALL THE WAY!
