   Getting a real strong smell of burning oil when at a stand still (traffic). Its not overheating and im not to sure what to look at. Oil levels good and under the oil cap is clean. Iv just given it a full service, could it just be burning off the low end of the oil?
   
   Any Ideas???
   
   Cheers
