every time i drive the car, i smell an odd burning smell and i can't tell where it is coming from and if it's something to worry about. i pop my hood and can't smell anything... but if i put my nose to the fan, it kind of smells like it's coming from there. is this a potential issue? has anyone else had anything like this?

the car is an '06 C2S that I purchased fairly recently. The car has 30K miles on it.

hi. look under your car. it should be the grease dripping on the exhaust pipes and burning. the grease comes from the rear wheel arms (not sure what these are exactly). just lift the car and you will see grease all over the place. easy to fix. cheers
