Strong Engine Bay Smell with Sunroof Open
After not having the windows down or sunroof open for most of the winter, I have realized that when either are open just a crack, it's creating a vacuum and sucking in air from the engine bay.
I had a leaky rear valve cover that I replaced in the fall, which I believed to be the cause of the odor(burnt oil). Although it went away after I fixed that vc, I now know it's because I wasn't opening the windows/sunroof.
I obviously have another oil leak somewhere, but has anyone had this odor problem in their interiors?
