Smells problem
2001 Honda Odyssey 135,00 miles

Hello. I have a question regarding my 2001 odyessey. yesterday i heard something pop and it sounded like it was coming from underneath or under hood. (Somewhere inside car). Today, my check engine light went on and my TCS light went on for a short time adn I couldn't turn it off. Also, there is a strange smell that started yesterday. I assumed it was because I just started using the airconditioning again. It smells like the air when I don't put the recycle button on only worser. Any idea what I can be dealing with? I also know I have an oil leak, but it's an expensive repair and I've been putting off bringing it in for a repair because I'n planning to buy a new CRV.
Thank you for your help.

Hi ilovelucy707,

Get a free scan done at Autozone and let me know the exact trouble code.

As to the smell, it could be oil leaking onto the exhaust.

Check the coolant level first.
