Burning oil smell isn’t at all similar to burning clutch smell though. Brake pads can smell like burning clutch though. Maybe there is a stuck caliper. Is one wheel dusting excessively?

i think, just like food, some people don't know/can't tell the difference enough to know better!

No Way! He loves going in the orange car, he consistently picked it over the boring black Mazda we used to have. Now we have a yellow Si as our second car and it's about even.

Tractor-like noises at very low rpm.

A late thank you, Doug. Great explanation, I hope it's not inherent in the design.

Thanks again - enjoy your "smell-free" FR-S!
