Ok, it's been raining a lot and love the climate control, and the defrost function is just great! But... drove to doctors office today and when I get back home to pull in gagrage I smell rubber burning, and a little smoke trail coming from front of car? The last time I smelled this it was the vaccum watchamacallit hose, under the cover. I haven't had a chance to check but just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Smell that is, as always thanks,Bill

if the belt is smoking that is bad news.. I dont think this could come from high belt tension.
But since you have been using defrost a lot, that acitvated the Air conditionner. So if I was to guess, I would say your AC compressor is starting to seize up. could be bad ($$) news... watch carefully, a lot of things stop working when the belt fails.
luckily the water pump is a separate belt on the X.....
