Went returning car to the garage after being out for a while, there seems to be a smell from the car like a warm or hot smell. There are no leaks and there hasn't been any repairs. The temp gauge in the car is normal and the car runs great, no apparent problems

Has something changed that could cause YOU to think it is hotter than usual? Does it smell like a hot vapor? Check the fluids to be sure. Check the under side of the car to see if you have picked up anything that could be touching the exhaust. Sometimes a stick or branch can get stuck under the car.
