Burning plastic Smell

I get a burning plastic smell from time to time in my 04 civic seems to happen when I step on the gas. Any ideas?

Re: Burning plastic Smell

is your car dropped and how low is it it could just be your tires rubbing on the rubber molding inside the fenders just check if theres anything touching the tires first .

Or you might have ran over some plastic on the road somewhere and its stuck to piping on ur exhaust.

When I step on the gas I get a burnt rubber kind of smell, and smoke comes all out of the front of the car, hehe.
