[DML] Re: Noise & Smell - something happened

This problem *could* be a bad idler pulley bearing. Or it could be the transmission problem. Look at the belts. See if they are there, and if they are in good condition.

Tonight it happened again and the engine was making a real wierd noise. Then the car was consumed by what smelled like burning rubber. Any ideas? I think a belt in the engine compartment slipped off or something.
