Description of the problem	I'm a 2004 honda crv ex owner and purchased the vehicle on 10/18/2004. I noticed a burning smell from the exhaust after driving the vehicle. I receiveda pamphlet when at purchase stating a smell will be evident for the first few hundred miles. However, it was the first thousand miles. Current mileage apr. 8009 miles. I still smell it occasionally. Not knowing about all the previous damage from other owners, from the doubling the gasket. I think it might be that. Maybe oil leakage or something. Haven't brought it in for a check on that however. But i will asap. I have already got my first oil change(04apr05) at the dealership where i purchased vehile, and have not had any problems from anything catching fire. Also didn't bring up the smell, but i should have. Still do smell a burning scent from the exhaust after driving the car. Also, my 5th door(trunk) i noticed a thuping sound when opened all the way and brought it up during oil change and dealership fixed problem with no questions asked. They over charge me though($103. 92). Don't go to "poway honda " in california. Actually writing to consumer reports as well. Also have to say this is a great website and will reccommend to others. Thank you. *ak
