Default Burnt oil smell!!
I just got a 03 cts and after driving for a while and I stop and idle it, I can smell burnt oil coming through the vents. i checked the oil level and it was fine. During quick acceleration a couple of times there has been a message that said something about bad oil pressure and to stop the engine. Anyone have any suggestions?
