No matter how i drive my car, there always seems to be a burning type of smell, kinda like a rubber smell. Iv asked a few friends and the only things they come up with is either im burning up the clutch or my something in my tire assembly , brakes are ceising. My clutch isnt slipping so im assuming its not it.
I havent taken it into any shop just yet, but i was hoping to get some suggestions on what it might be from guys or girls who have the same car.

Make sure one of your tailpipes aren't rubbing a back tire.I had that happen to my car.

yes also, do you have the heater running it will do that with older cars.

No not at all , i dont think its not the tailpipe either iv looked at the underbody a bunch , its loking preety good. I just have a little bit of rust under the floor mats. Im stumped with the burning smell tho. Any more ideas

If you have cats they could be heating up burning some under coating or exhaust might be close to the floor..
