Looks like it's going back for the 5th or 6th time..

After going back and forth to the dealership because of a steering problem now it looks like I am going to have to take it back again! This time a real bad burning smell coming into the cabin thru the vents. Only happens after a short run on the motorway, fine driving at low speeds. I popped the bonnet, seems the smell is coming from the right of the exhaust manifold in front of the brake fluid reservoir, but further down into the engine bay, so cant see anything. Real horrible smell - something is definitely getting hot that shouldn't be getting hot. Anyone on here had that problem before???
