Probably not much hope of finding the source by posting here but what the heck. Ever since installing a 2" lift (possibly just a coincidence) on my 2019 Moab a few months ago, I occasionally have a strange burning-like odor coming from the engine bay and I can smell it inside the Jeep. I first thought it might be brakes but couldn't really smell it within the wheel wells and the rotor temps all seemed normal. The odor is really hit or miss, some days it's there right when I leave the house other days nothing. When I notice it, it typically goes away after 20 minutes. Ironically, this is about the same amount of time/miles it takes me to get to the local Jeep dealer (Lol). I haven't taken it in yet just because I've been trying to be able to re-create it and I just know it won't happen for the service tech. Also, I only smell it after first heading out. In other words, it doesn't come back after that first 20 minutes or so or after multiple starts. I work at home so I don't drive it every day. It doesn't smell like a fluid such as oil or trans and there's no sign of any leaks. No visual clues by casually looking around the engine. This is really baffling me.
