Cubflyer Posted November 19, 2025 Report Share Posted November 19, 2025 So I have been experiencing hot or burnt oil smell when I come to a stop. I have no leaks on the floor of my garage. Looking closely all over the engine I dont see anything that is leaking that I would feel is burning. The smell is more like a hot oil smell. Would a plugged pvc valve cause this problem? I never had this issue before I had a vvt seal completely blow out. After replacing the seal it seems as if the oil smell has never gone away. Other then this the engine runs great with no oil usage. Any ideas or suggestions? thanks Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago Have you solved this yet? If not, I'd suggest taking a close look at the VVT solenoid that was replaced. It is most likely due an improper seal seat. And yes, a stuck PVC valve can cause a buildupnof pressure, forcing oil to leak at several places.
