Oil smell after spirited driving
I’ve got a 2010 E550 with the NA 5.5L v8. Today I was running late for an appointment and I was driving pretty hard. When I arrived where I was going and exited the car, I got a faint but obvious whiff of burning oil. No smoke and it wasn’t a strong smell, but it was definitely there.
Before I start pulling covers off to look for a leak, or take it in for service I wanted to post here and see if maybe this was a common issue with this vehicle platform.
