Just recently if I slow down or even stop, upon acceleration I get the wierdest smell. Doesn't smell burnt, doesn't smell sweet, it smells like( you ready for this? )beef jerky. I'm not kidding, honest, it's a mild smell but I'm pretty sure this '99 Disco II didn't come off the line smelling like this. Any ideas?!!! - RR.

 

Do you have kids? Maybe they stuffed a few slimjims under the seat.

 

im guessing your disco is not a diesel?? i was gonna say it could be the po used bio-diesel that makes it smell of beef.

 

previous owner had kids but I flipped this thing inside & out when I bought it and cleaned it. I trust that if it was the tranny it would smell more ominus... thanks for the feedback. - RR.

 

If it smelled like rotten eggs, would be the cats.

 

Could simply beer fungus etc that builds up on the interior Aircon evaporator, they need to be cleaned once in a while. You can buy treatments in a can that you simply spray into the intake and follow the instructions etc and it kills all the nasties and leaves a fresh smell. More important on a Disco than most modern cars as it has no pollen filter.

 

the smell only makes your truck more manly. its like a permanent manfreshner.
