Is it maybe the waste tank that smells of curry or is it the carpets?

leave your waste & solution tanks open when not using your machine?

Sure its not the wet dog smell that wool gives off, if you think its the machine give it a good clean then mix some sanitizer in water and suck through the waste hose, should sort the problem. Unless your brushes are on the way out and your getting the burning smell mate.
