Burning Smell
After I drive a litte hard or fast I notice this burning smell. Originally I thought it was my clutch because I am fairly new to driving a manual car. But then tonite I went out and did a little test. On an open street I opened up the car a little shifting hard up to 4th gear and then let myself coast to slow down and then lightly used the brakes. No smell. Then I did the same but at the end used the brakes hard to slow down and I would get this smell almost like burning rubber. So Im pretty sure its coming from the brakes now but my question is, what could be causing this? Do I need new pads? They have been squeaking but Ive been told thats normal on some brakes. Is it the rotors, calipers? Any advice would be great.
