Was fine last week , went to ukraine for a week , jumped in yesterday and it was hoofing when the heating was on.

Smells like burning but stops smelling after maybe 5 minutes - but comes back if i turn heating off for a bit and back on later

30 thousand trouble free miles and now all my issues. Come at once 🙁

Ps nothing is actually burning ive checked that !

Have you upset anybody? Sounds like somebody has put something down your heater vents.

has your car got aircon? you can get bacteria in the system that can stink, this would be the same with your heating.

There are sprays you canbuy to kill it..
