My car burns oil and gives a smell off whenever i drive it long enough for it to warm up i had to change the oil because the level was really low so i put high mileage oil. it has 80000 miles on it. i put the oil 2 weeks ago and its already burning the oil and it heats up to a little past the half and starts letting off burned oil smell. i fear that ill blow the engine help!!

its a small leak in your heater core try keeping a eye on coolant level, and there are a lot of sealers out on the market ,I cant figure why on a 2 year old car its also possible one of the hoses supplying it are leaking in car or right where hose goes in to firewall . im really hoping some of this helped you. if you ask other questions PLEASE give year make model and motor size.

you don`t say kind or model of car so this will be generic. with the car on a level surface running and warm, find the transmission dipstick tube, remove the dipstick wipe it off re-insert and pull out check the level at the end of the stick with it facing down so oil won`t run up the dipstick giving the wrong level. there should be markings on the end of the dipstick that will indicate from low oil to proper oil level. also smell the oil if it smells burnt have the transmission service done(change oil and filter). it should be a reddish colour not brown or dark in colour.

Check ignition angles and change oil/transmisison fluid. Also I'd recommend replace spark plugs.

If you have no oil leaks present, then perform an engine compression check. It really sounds like your engine has worn badly.

This sounds as if you have a rather High Mileage vehicle. (100,000+)
The puff of blue smoke is oil being burned in the cylinders. When the engine is cold, it will burn some oil, usually sucked in through the Valve Stem Guides.
Then after the motor warms up, and all the metal parts swell a little, it stops smoking as much. It is STILL smoking, but not enough for you to see it.

Obviously, you are losing engine oil, so check the oil level often, and refill/change as neccessary.

The 'strange smell' could be many different things. My best guess is that you have Oil Leaks on the engine, which is dripping on to the Exhaust Manifold, and getting burned there. Usually a Valve-Cover Gasket leak. When the car is all warmed up, open the hood, with the engine running, and see if there is any whitish smoke rising from the motor. if so, you have a leak on to the manifold. A very common problem, easily repaired. Or, you may have a leak in the heaters' Core, which will leak Anti-freeze into the cabin of the car. That would smell sort of sickly-sweet. This will be a much more expensive problem to repair.

Anyway, it sounds as if the car is in need of some maintenance.

No heat usually means low water level in radiator. Check your plastic surge tank to see if is at the proper level. When engine is cool check actual level in radiator.

For smell check to see if any oil is weeping from top engine gasket and dripping onto exhaust manifold, You should be able to check with flashlight while engine is idling.

The oil was overfilled this could cause a large amount of oil to enter the exaust and possibly the intake depending on crank case ventilation conditions. If you are positive engine oil levels are adjusted perfectly(warm engine check level running for dry sump oil level ect.). Time is needed to burn off oil residue in exhaust system and intake. Warm up engine low rpm no load, drive vehicle slow with little boost over 5 mins slowly raise rpms for another 5 mins keep driving smoke will burn off while making other drivers mad. sorry just smile and wave.
The engine oil on this vehicle should only be changed by an experinced tech.

you need to check the fuild in it and the shift arm to see if it is out of adjustment and make sure your parking brakes are working for safety give these website a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails stop by your local library and get your hands on a Haynes auto repair manual for your truck wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

Generally that smell is caused by an oil leak that is getting on either the exhaust pipe or manifold (doesn't take much to smell). As far as bottle getting low, I've got a 93 that never stays full but only needs coolant in the radiator about once every two months. Been like that for two or three years and has never overheated. I'm sure there is a small leak somewhere, but I'm not driving myself crazy looking for it. Check all hose connections, and look on the ground after being parked overnight...If it's leaking, something will show up. But if the radiator is staying full, just check it when checking oil level.

I am not really sure what your problem is but if you have over sized tires on the car when you turn you could be getting this smell or someone changed the oil in the car they got a lot of oil in the frame and while driving it is getting on the drive belt and that will also give off a burning rubber smell
