I smell burning oil.

Sometimes when i back up with the sliding window open I think I smell burning oil. Today I tried to sniff the exhaust with the truck running. It kind of smells like it's burning oil. Its never more than a qt low between oil changes at 5k and nothing in the exhaust pipe. Is it normal? I don't have the ccv mod so it's still venting into the turbo so maybe that is causing the smell.

Who knows it could be anything. They are called "oil burners" for a reason.

I kind of figured it was nothing but I thought I would ask.
