but the burning smell you mention

might be just the heater matrix then, it uses the water from the engine so would slowly get hotter and hotter

nope, seems normal to me. Maybe I'm just being an idiot, but I did notice it when the car wasn't turned on, I had it so the stereo was playing as I fitted some neons in the footwells and at that point noticed it was red hot
