Default 07 Maxx Burning Smell

My maxx has high miles (54000). I keep smelling something that smells like a fluid leak but I can't find anything.The smell comes from underneath the car after it has been running. What could this be?

oil running onto your manifold? changed the oil lately, or head gasket gone and your getting an antifreeze smell.? or something stuck to you exhaust? run over a palstic bag lately

Unlikely but it could be clogged Catalitic converter overheating....you losing power?
