I agree - it's hard to figure out what the problem may be without being there ourselves, so it's probably best to let the professionals have a look.
But my older sewing machines (particularly the portable ones that sit in carrying cases for long periods) often have a musty metal/oil smell about them. Could it just be that leaving the machine with the cover off for a while could help?
