Lady brought in a 2004 Corolla with a 'weird smell'

She comes in last Tuesday and says it smells like burnt toast mixed with old socks. I pop the hood and find a half eaten bag of fast food stuck to the exhaust manifold, melted into a crispy mess. Turns out her kid dropped it through the engine bay vents like 3 weeks ago. Has anyone else seen random food items cooked inside a car like that?

Toss a dryer sheet under the hood after you scrape that off. Keeps the mice out and masks the leftover burnt smell for a while.

The dryer sheet trick never worked for me long term. Mice ended up using the sheet for bedding once the scent faded.
