Single tire chirp with downshift
Out for a drive today and noticed my rear passenger side tire started chirping with downshifts. And not "sporty" downshifts, just regular driving, maybe slowing down for a turn in the road. If I double clutch it doesn't happen.
I also noticed a rather strong smell, something I couldn't place. (Not burning oil, tranny fluid, burnt clutch or tire rubber). If I had to describe it, I'd say scrambled eggs, but less sulphur-y. When I got home the engine bay looked totally normal, no leaks anywhere. 20 minutes later, the floor underneath is perfectly dry.
What could this be? The only thing that came to mind is the limited slip - I've only had this car about 4 years, and it's my first experience with LSD.
