burning rubber smell

[nige.m]

Good evening guys. I have today noticed a burning rubber smell at the back of the car. Was there this morning after 5 mile journey home. And again tonight after journey to work again. Nothing noticeable on the tyre or wheel area.
Any ideas on a place to start.
Thanks
Nige.

i went over a huge plastic wrapper sometime ago, it got stuck to my back box, i took it off while it was warm but small residue remained on the backbox, you can get it cleaned or you can wait it out and hopefully will burn away eventually

Have you felt the wheel/tyre after driving? Might have a sticky caliper.

If it's a diesel then it could be a DPF regen cycle if you hear a fan running at the same time?
