Manual Transmission Oil?
does manual transmission oil smell sweet? the reason i ask is that all 3 of my rubber boots on my shifter are torn and a little bit of oil has come through. it smells inside my car, a little sweet with a hint of burnt clutch. i'm not sure if that is the cause of the smell or not. i just bought the car a week ago and the smell has been there since i bought it.
i checked my carpets under the dash and there is no sign of coolant leaking from the heater core so i'm pretty sure it's not that.

Keep Right Except to Pass
It could have some synthetic stuff in there that could smell that way. I wouldn't think it was 90wt. cause that stuff stinks.
The burnt clutch smell isn't good though. Or are you just hard on it?
