A few months ago I noticed the odor of burning oil, but onlywhile warming up my 1998 SE.
Checked it out and saw a couple drops of oil on the garage floor. Looked more closely and saw a drop of oil hit thetop of what I believe is a (hot) exhaust pipe (directly under the engine).Now I can seeand smell the oilsmoke; but always and ONLY during warm up. The situation isgetting worse instead of better. A dealership changed the oil and filter about 3,500 miles ago.
Is this a sign of a bigger problem? Thank youin advance, Brian
