I also have noticed a noticeable smell...as if something is burning. Did anyone else have this smell or heat shield rattle?
I had the rattle (hitting the brace), adjusted the hanger mount a little higher and got a different rattle (heat shield rattle). The's probably a sweet spot. I ended up added spacers to the cross brace bolts (to space it down) and no more rattle.

I got mine used so didnt notice any smell.
