Oil smell coming through the vents
I get a burning smell through the vents (when they are open) after sustained high speed or high rev driving. Anyone know what I can do to stop this?

I know this is a month old.
Had you changed or spilled any oil about that time? Because of the filter location, a little oil will spill and that could be burning off. I intermittently clean the engine bay at the car wash with the pressure hose. I leave the engine running while doing this. |
I have the exact same problem. Nothing upon start up or shut down. No leaks of any kind on the ground. But, at operating temp., a strong burning oil/rubber smell comes through the air vents only and only when standing still - cannot be smelled outside the car, cannot be smelled while driving.

Me Too ?!.
I just bought my 04 rx8 and noticed the same smell after lengthy drives(30 mins +). No signs of leak on driveway or in engine bay. How concerned should we be? Thanks.
