2000 Honda Civic EX - some issues
 

Yesterday I bought a 2000 Honda Civic EX 1.6L with 102k miles. I just had the exhaust system replaced from the catalytic converter back. On the way home, I started to smell burning rubber. I looked at the front passenger wheel, and smoke was coming out of the wheel well. Could this be related to the exhaust work?
I'd appreciate any thoughts. Thanks!

did you get down under the wheel well when you got home ??
(or perhaps toooo cold to do that )

I called the repair shop this morning and they said it was normal. That there were some stickers, seals and paint on the parts that takes a day or two to burn off. If it continues they said to bring it in. Sounds reasonable...well see.

I'd figure a reputable shop knowing this ahead of time, would remove the stickers to avoid callbacks.
