2005 Camry Odor

[dohc]

Hi, I just bought a new 4 cyl '05 Camry. I love the car but it has one weird problem. When I go to restart it after it has been running around doing errands and is warmed up, it has a smell like something burning very faintly then it goes away in a minute or so. Does anyone have an idea of what this might be? I thought it might be some new coatings on the engine that are being burned off till it will eventually go away.
Thanks in advance.

i'm no camry expert but your diagnosis sounds correct and also the brake pads do this for a little while after i change em so thats a possiblity too...

How many miles on it? When I got my '05 cavalier, it had greases or plastics or something that burned off the engine/exhaust when it was new. Got it with 2 miles on it, and I think it was long gone by 500 miles.

Ths smell is most likely from some coolant spilled during the cars Pre Delivery Inspection at your dealer. It will go away very soon, if not then hose down the motor and it will be gone. Do Not use a pressure washer!
thanks again
