Odd Smell
2017 GS350 Lux RWD 82k miles/Michelin P/S AS 4
Been having a strange smell crop up occasionally under the following conditions:
This really only happens as I accelerate down this one on ramp in my city, when I drop to 2nd gear using the paddles and give about 3/4 throttle, up to about 80mph (upshifting as well, not holding in 2nd, lol, just so we're clear). I'll normally drop from 3rd to 2nd around 25-35 mph.
The closest thing I can relate the smell to is a slightly burnt/hot clutch in a manual car. It goes away pretty quickly.
Any ideas?
