My Ride: 525d Automatic Silver grey with beige dakota leather, Blue tooth, extended lights xenon head lights, park distance, 138 wheels,extended aircon, service inclusive
I have had a similar problem. I have noticed that occaisionally the car has a strange noise comming from the rear at slow speed as if the diff was on it way out. I was going to take it to the garage but it appens so randomly that there would be no point

Only had strong smell from brakes after some spirited driving....nothing else.

The entrance to my garage at work requires a pretty quick stop and tight turn (well, I guess when you're going to fast it requires a quick stop), so I can also smell my brakes when I get out of the car at work. It just seems to be there when I've been braking aggressively, so I assume that's what it is.
Sometimes while I'm driving, like after an aggressive start, it seems like I smell something, so maybe that's the clutch.
