Thanks...seriously though, I didn't smell anything when I got mine done. The only thing I smelled...
was the initial start up of my dp's and cats when I put those on. You sure it's the manis? And I'll put them on the front. Lets hope the car doesn't pull or shimmy anymore!

No, I'm not sure...that's why I'm asking for the experiences of others.
Piggie thinks it's probably my manis still, but he hasn't been in my car for a while so he is just assuming. Mike Moore was in my car and thought it was oil at first, but when he popped the hood said it definitely wasn't oil. When I told him what Piggie told me about the manis, he thought that could be it. All fluids levels are exactly where they were a few weeks ago. I don't get it.

If you only "smell" it and don't see smoke wafting up then its a very
small leak (if its even a leak, may just be some oil/coolant spillage). It wouldn't be measurably different. Put it on the lift now! ;p
