I recently did an oil change and had it checked with no leaks it anything. About a week later I have white smoke coming from under the hood and a burning smell. There's a couple of small oil drips on the ground but nothing else. I can't find the leak though. Had anyone else had this problem, if so what is or was it?

Can you tell what the white smoke smells like?

If it is sweet, it's antifreeze, and white smoke is what is suspect.

what year? has the engine splash shield campaign been completed?

MsKaution

It smells like a burning rubber smell. Not sweet at all

MsKaution
