Hi Folks, I bought a Subaru Baha a month ago, and when I stop after going up a hill or occassionally when stopped in traffic, I smell a waft of something burning, like a fan belt. I've taken it to the dealer for them to smell, and they said it was the protective coating from the factory burning off the engine, and didn't appear to be any of the (visible) belts. Have any of you experienced something similar with your car, and what was it that was producing this slight waft of something burning. BTW, I've also lately noticed quite a lot of water dripping through the air conditioner condensation tube. Not sure if this would be connected to the above, and would appreciate knowing if this is common as well. When I noticed the puddle beneath my car, my air conditioner was previously turned off. Thanks much, David
