Oil Odor
Hey guys I have noticed after driving the G for a hour+ that when I idle, a odor comes through the heating ducts. This is not a heavy odor but noticable. Seems like oil or possibly coolant(I doubt it is coolant not quite that sweet of a smell). Any thoughts(of course there are). Thanks in advance.

If there are no visible leaks on engine, no oil consumption and your oil changes were done by neat guy who wiped everything up have your engine shampood.
I had smell of oil/heated rubber smell from heater vents and took it to dealer. Didn't find anything wrong(heater is OK, no leaks) , shampood the engine, smell is gone at least for now. Rep explained that road grime accumulates on engine over time and location of heater air intake is very close to engine bay, so it sucks all smells in.
I hope it helps.
