here and there after i drive my car or while i'm driving my car you can smell oil. it smells like burnt oil. i check the oil level and it seems fine. not sure what it is?

 

Check your crank case ventilation system. on my old 4.2 I had a small leak and could smell oil in the car

 

It could also be that your valve cover gaskets are blown. Have you noticed any white smoke yet? Baskin is right about checking your crankcase ventilation system as it is known to clog up especially the suction pump which in turn causesback pressure to build up which in turn causes the valve cover gaskets to blow. Check for signs of oil on the sides of you valve covers.

 

will be checking all that this weekend.

 

i had same problem. i changed valve cover gaskets by my self, but smoke stil there. then i found two spots where was leaking. I put the car to the dealer and they change "cam tensioner seals". Car stop smoking and smeling. Just one think, repair cost 1070$

this is that what broken: http://pap-parts.com/prodinfo.asp?nu...58%20198%20217

 

here is all parts number what they used:
2x 058-198-217
2x 078-198-025

 

well, i have a warranty on it so fixing it is not a matter. probably have the dealer check it when i take it in this friday.

 

well, got it checked out and techs said block, heads, motor, everything was fine. the only thing they said was wrong was driveshaft seals were going out and could be leaking and burning on exhaust.

 

I have the same problem, but i can only smell the oil when the car is sitting at a stop sign or stop light...as soon as i start moving it goes away and i never smell it while driving down the road..

 

Same deal here. Problem just recently happened. Anyone have any ideas on which seals it could specifically be and what to look for?
