Burning Oil Smell

$

Hi all,

After a regular urban journey with the engine at normal operating temperature I notice a burning oil smell when I get out of the car - not noticeable while driving.

Series 2 V6 205,000 kays serviced every 5000-10,000 since new.

Uses about 200ml of oil every 5000 kays - to be expected for an engine of this age.

Absolutely no leaks - engine starts first time every time & runs perfectly.

Run on Pentrite 10W-30 for the last 100,000 kays - oil changed a week ago & degreased all spills - smell is still there.

Could this be a crankcase ventilation issue?

Thanks in advance.
