I'm getting a burning oil smell after taking the car for a drive and getting out the drivers side, engine bay looks clean but I have just noticed some oil on the road where the car has been parked the last coupe of nights.

Also I am getting some condensation out of the exhaust and some mist coming out of the oil dipstick when the engine is idling.

Where the hell do I start? Are we talkng big money? lol

Put your hand over the dipstick hole when the car is running, do you feel pressure there?

Would look that way matey :B_thumb:

About £70 delivered from Rufe :D

If your good with cars do it yourself, if not i reckon your looking at about £100 - £150 labour costs, unless you have a mate that might do it for you.
