Is it lifted? If so check the rubber boots on the drive shafts.

 

[Oakbluff]

No it’s not lifted. It’s new. Only has 1100 miles on it.

Any other thoughts

Maybe some underbody protection oil on/near the exhaust?

 

[Oakbluff]

Thanks, I will look underneath tomorrow to see if there any signs of fluid or discoloration.

Normally only a diesel model issue but pop off the plastic engine cover and check the rear corners & lip are not melting.

Check for oil leaking onto exhaust below turbo. I thought it was a rubber smell too until I opened the bonnet and saw the smoke.

I was going to say that too. I have a leaky turbo oil pipe. I did notice a burning rubber smell a few days ago. I now think that was the oil leak.

Both of these are on B58s or B57s?

Check for the timing belt touching something which isn't properly installed/mounted/seating.
