Hello everyone
Yesterday afternoon, I checked my cars oil level, and noticed it was the smallest bit low, so I poured some in. Now when the car gets up to temp and I have the heater on, the blowing air has a strong oil smell, almost like the oil is burning or something! This it self worries me!
But also, very odd, but when I start it up now, it sort of rumbles and sits at a higher rpm for a few seconds, then goes does to normal and quiets down again. I'm not sure how worried I should be about this.
Are these related in any way?? Could topping the oil up have anything to do with this?? Obvioustly I want the smell to go away, since I have the heaters on constantly!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
