    lately when i start my car and let it warm up, there is a stronnng smell of oil burning. i recently had my oil changed and haldex serviced and i remember looking under the car and seeing an ok amount of oil by the oil filter. i also have to keep an eye on the levels and give it about a quart or 2 in between oil changes.
    225 ftw!

    your going to have to look to see if your motor is wet anywhere first, could be any number of things, like plastic elbows and rubber hoses that could be broken. if there is no physical signs, maybe seals in turbo, or blow by getting past the pistons.
