After a drive and park my '94 in the garage for few minutes the exhaust makes expansion noises - normal??
Also it smells hot with a smell of fluid dripping on exhaust. I can't get under the car to inspect, but there's nothing on the floor anyway. Ideas??

Yes they can make some cool down noise. Open the hood and look for leaks UV dye could help.

One time I fully welded my exhaust, it made tons of noises when shut off. To the side of very annoying. I cured some of it by getting it hot, then shocking it with a garden hose inside and out several times.

Ive never welded more then tacks since then.

but since you brought it up, only thing ive noticed so far with mine. On a warm days, once windows are down the interior makes pops n clicks as it cools.
