Car exhaust can smell like rotten eggs when the fuel has a lot of sulphur in it.
most likely you have a leak in the exhaust pipes or a bad catalytic converter
if the exhaust has a foul smell like rotten eggs most likely the cacatalytic convert is a bad
Many things can cause a burning smell under the hood of your car, if the smell is accompanied by smoke you are most likely looking at a fluid leak dripping onto something hot and burning off. If it smells sweet this would be a sign of a coolant leak. A ozone type smell would most likely be caused by a burnt clutch (standard transmission) or brakes hanging up and staying applied. burnt clutch smell would be expected if you have a new driver learning to drive a stick. An exhaust leak would smell, well, quite frankly like exhaust which is a dangerous gas to be inhaling (CO2, CO, etc). either way if your car is smelling funky you should really have a professional auto technician check it out to prevent damage to your health, the environment or future damage to your vehicle.
sounds like an exhaust leak, or a fuel leak. that depends on the smell.
This sounds like an oil leak. More specifically, oil leaking from the valve cover gasket and then dripping on your exhaust somewhere. Replace the valve cover gasket and see if that solves the problem. If it doesn't, search for the leak source and repair it accordingly.
That could be a leaking exhaust system. A leaking exhaust system is very dangerous! Please have it checked out ASAP.
I dont know why it might smell like propane in your case but my car runs on propane so the exhaust has a propane sorta smell to it. In your case id check your exhaust. You might need a new catalytic converter or something may be leaking under your hood.
during a brand new cars "break in" its normal to smell like somethings burning, coming from the brakes and exhaust...the metal on the disc brakes and the pads heat up for the first time making it smell like somethings burning, same goes for the catalytic converter in the exhaust system.
