While driving I get a distinct oil burning smell while at a stop coming through the vents. i can also smell it outside of the car. definitely passenger side down low. no visual evidence on the floor.
Please send me a PM if you find out whats going on

I haven't done a ton of investigation yet but plan to tomorrow because I am getting something similar. I am at right around 4900 miles now and have noticed it off and on, I don't always get the smell. I check the oil fairly often and it's not losing or burning an appreciable amount, not enough to even register on the dipstick.
