I've had this burning rubber smell coming from the engine area of my 2001 Tiptronic Boxster. I can smell it coming out of the Drivers (right hand) side. I've changed the rubber drive belt. Checked for any oil leaks etc - checked all fluid levels but the smell persists. Seems to be stronger after a short trip (about 5 klms) than a longer one. Its been there now for some months without causing any problems - I'm concerned that it is about to become something major. Does anybody have any ideas.
Pete.
