Before trying to judge any smells, I would make sure that the HOT air blower is OFF in your car.
I know when my cabin heats up, it smells like burnt plastic...

The smell is from curing, there isn't anything wrong with the car...

Burnt rubber odor coming into cab
Quote:
Technician at my dealer pinpointed it to small leak on right side cylinder head. Leaking onto manifold causing the odor and the residue I smelled and saw. Tech resealed the head, topped off oil, and I'm back on the road. Hope this helps anybody else
