bad oil smell from colorado

to smell oil you probally will have an oil leak, check for one... also did you change the air filter away from the original setup, meaning is the "k&N" just the brand or have you fitted a "off road" or "hi-flow" or something different from the original set up...

Shaneo86 - It would have to be burning oil - If the mechanic is not real good this model will trap oil on the front pan and around the diff - As you drive wind will blow some on to the exhaust and burn off - I would look under the filter area to make sure there is no oil for sure.

If that is not the problem the other thing is that the tailshaft uni's can be overgreased and as you drive they throw off the access. this hits the exhaust and takes some time to burn off.

Look under the car at the uni's = if they are over greased you will see grease thrown up under the car as well.

Other than that - Keep looking you will find oil somewhere :-)

hi shane
you seem to have a lot of problems with that colorado

my thoughts on the oil smell
is possibly thevalve rocker cover gasket could be leaking and the oil is running down onto the exhaust manifold hence the constant smell of burning oil
