Re: Burning smell from underneath?

It doesn't have to run for too long before I can smell it, usually starts about 2 minutes after startup. It's definitely not coming from the engine, but I can't find any exhaust leaks, either...the smell is right under the driver's door. Anyone have any ideas? It's driving me nuts, and it only started about two weeks ago.
If your CAT was replaced then sometimes they are shipped sprayed with oil and this takes a little while to burn off!
