Well, I am not sure that the smell has anything to do with the noise
that I heard, and that's why I was wondering about whether it was the
same thing or not. However, if you are saying that yours happens once
only and does not occure multiple times throughout changes in
acceleration, then this maybe is not the same thing. Still, I'd like to
know what they say! ;-)
