Weird Smell???

I Just Got An Oil Change From Goodyear or Gemini Whatever You Want To Call It And Now I Have This Weird Smell Coming Out Of The Air Vents And The Engine Bay. They Did Spray Something Under The Car When I Was Looking But Dont Know What It Was. Could Anyone Tell Me What That Smell Is? It Smells Like Burning Rubber Or To That Nature. I'm Thinking Its That Stuff They Sprayed Under The Car Burning Off Or I Could Be Wrong And It Could Be Something Else. Oh And Its A 06 Sentra 1.8S

It's probably just Engine degreaser. No need to worry, it should burn off of your exhaust system shortly.

This might be it

When other people change your oil in the car they don't care as much as if you were doing it so they let the oil drip down onto the exhaust pipe, so more then likely the small is from burning oil on the pipe usually it goes away after some time. Next time ask if the can cover the pipe with a rag before removing the oil filter. I hope this helps.
