It didn't start this until my brother changed the oil in it, before this I wasn't smelling burning oil, what could be wrong. I also sometime notice a slight oil leak that's occuring.I can drive my car for about a mile I smell oil burning when I get out of the car?
Well if it is leaking after he did an oil change the plug or the oil filter is not tight enough. Also if there was spilled oil it my cause the burning smell. Nothing to worry about. but check the plug and filterI can drive my car for about a mile I smell oil burning when I get out of the car?
Check to see if there is a oil leak; place some newspaper under the engine over night. Make sure the oil plug and filter are tight.
Another possibility is that when the old oil was drained some of it dripped on the exhaust pipe or manifold. If this is the case, it will shortly burn off.
he might of spilled oil on your exhaust manifold, or your valve covers could be leaking
Your brother could of spilled oil on the manifold or on the engine block when putting oil in and is now burning off.
check to see if the oil filter is on tight and check the oil drain plug as it could be a little loose, don't hesitate on checking this as it could ruin your engine if either one of these items should fall off.
oil spilled on engine?
not enough oil in car?
wrong oil changed?
eliminate these then come back !
