Hey guys ive noticed a slight oil smell when car is parked at idle. I noticed it when i went and helped my buddy jump start his car. While my car was running to charge his battery i get a slight oil
smell. I dont smell it inside the car though. Where are the easy spots to check for oil getting by the turbo. Thanks!

Hot side intake tubes, or if you are getting any blue smoke out the rear. Other than that you have to take the down pipes off the car. If it's under warranty. I would take it back to the dealer.

When was the last time you brought it in for a service?
I thought I had the same thing, but turned out it was a bad axle seal that was leaking on to the engine block.
Its still under warranty so ill just swing by the dealer, just trying to find the problem first or give them ideas what to check to give them a nudge in the right direction. As for service i do it all myself. It has been going on for a few oil changes now and it comes and goes.

Which area was that at? I am just starting to get a oil smell just immediately after changing my oil, seems pretty random.
