2005 S40 Rubber smell
07/10/05 at 12:28:28  
I just purchased a 2005 S40 and have less than 50 miles on it so far.  Question: I get a smell of hot or burning rubber after engine is warned up.  Is this normal break in or should I take it back to the dealer?

When I purchased my new Savage back in Aug. 2003 I remember that there were a few "new" smells the first few weeks I had it ... put it down to the "newness" burning off ... haven't smelled 'em since 8)

Same with my S40. It went away after a few weeks.

Same with our '03 New Beetle -- it's part of the new car / new bike smell that people pay extra for.
