why does my Porsche 911 992 (2019-Present) have a burning smell after driving?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Tools Required: Basic hand tools, OBD-II scanner, multimeter.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface and the engine is cool to prevent burns.

2. Address Fluid Leaks

• Inspect and Replace: Identify the source of any fluid leaks (e.g., oil, coolant, brake fluid).
  • Sub-steps:
    • Clean the area around the leak.
    • Replace any damaged seals or gaskets.
    • Top off any low fluids with the appropriate type (e.g., engine oil, coolant).

3. Replace Worn Components

• Belts and Hoses: If any belts or hoses are damaged or show signs of melting, replace them.
  • Sub-steps:
    • Remove the damaged belt or hose.
    • Install the new component, ensuring proper alignment and tension on belts.
    • Use a torque wrench to tighten any clamps to the manufacturer’s specifications.

4. Cooling System Maintenance

• Radiator and Fans: If the cooling system is not functioning, replace or repair the radiator or fans.
  • Sub-steps:
    • Drain the coolant from the radiator.
    • Remove the radiator by disconnecting hoses and mounting bolts.
    • Install the new radiator and refill with manufacturer-recommended coolant, ensuring no air pockets remain.
