Smoke in the cabin

When I stand still it smells like the car is burning something and smoke comes in the cabin, only when I am sitting still.

Any ideas?

"Burning", as in burning oil?

Probably your pass. side valve cover gaskets.

[I think it smells like oil. How much would that normally run in the states to have that replaced? I am in Germany so there is no telling how much these bastards will charge.

Re: Smoke in the cabin

Depending on the year of the car, it may be covered under warranty. The cars come with a 4 yr. / 50k mile warranty (Just in case. Some people don't realize this). In order to change the gaskets, they need to remove quite a bit of stuff. I want to say the price tag for mine was about $300 (for both sides). Parts are less than half of that (around $75, IIRC).

Re: Smoke in the cabin

Doesn't that have to do with the suspension? How is that possible that it caused smoke? Interesting

I think mine is more towards the engine due to the smell.
