Why does your car smell hot and its not?
Many people associate the smell of antifreeze with an overheated engine. The only reason we do that is because we certainly smell antifreeze when the engine is overheated and blowing out antifreeze, but if there is just a slow leak of antifreeze and we smell that, we MIGHT be able to convince ourselves that the engine is overheated. Check for coolant leaks around the engine, radiator and heater hoses. After cooling down and drying out, antifreeze will leave a blue/green powdery subastance.

What does an overheated transmission smell like?
An overheated transmission often emits a burnt smell, similar to burnt rubber or toast. This odor arises from the overheating of transmission fluid, which can degrade and produce a distinctive, acrid scent. If you notice this smell, it may indicate that the transmission fluid is breaking down and could lead to potential damage if not addressed promptly. It's advisable to check the fluid levels and condition, and consult a mechanic if the smell persists.
