Hi
When I reverse park at a place I go regularly with a short steep-ish gravel car park, I notice a strong burning smell from underneath the car. FL2 TD4 2009 Auto.

I'm a bit bamboozled by whatever 4WD thing is under there, and a bit frightened too, tbh. I have had the rear diff replaced by a Bell reconditioned one a few years ago.

Is there something down there that i can fix or repair or replace or take to garage to do, or is it a sealed unit and leave it until it expires?

I did search using "burning smell underneath " which led to "clutch" issue but am none the wiser.

No flames or screaming.

Regards

Are you sure it’s not just exhaust gases your smelling as the car is making a bit more effort climbing in reverse and your going “into” the gases? Regards
