I get the same exact smell that you describe! It's the same on either short or long trips.

I don't have any smells from my rear...

However, the cats on the vehicle are close to the front.

It could be the mud burining off the exhaust. On a new vehicle for about 200 miles you do have a smell from the coating on the cat burning off.

Makes sense for HummerHippy's problem. But, on mine, I don't have any snow or mud on mine, but I do have a momentary burning smell as if I had been riding with the brakes on.

Smell from the rear.
I just noticed my 3's smell. It's only been a couple times. 11K miles. IT's much more a brake smell not burning mud dirt type. Just wondered if others get that when the stability control or trucks brain uses the brakes to control wheel spin as in going thru mud, or snow. I didn't smell it today backing out of the side yard. But I did last night going in.

Thanks

I'm starting to get a burning smell after driving and it is really evident when I go to open the back up. A bit over 12,000 miles now.
