Hi all,
Joined up a little while ago and introduced myself but haven't posted since then, just been browsing.
Recently, I'd noticed a burning smell coming from my car when it had heated up and was a bit confused as to what it was. It didn't smell of antifreeze and there were no other signs of a leaky heater matrix, and the engine wasn't overheating...
...well, I lifted the bonnet at the weekend to check the oil and found these

I'll try and remember not to leave tools under the bonnet next time I do any work, the melted plastic took a fair bit of getting off
