ok guys well I have checked all the fluids and I am losing oil but only a small amount at a time....I got under the car last night and looked very hard for anything out of the ordinary...my only find was oil that was above the oil filter (like it was leaking from somewhere above the oil filter) I tired to look at the plugs but could not see them too well and didn't have the time to pull stuff apart to exam further...I also see a little crud were my valve cover gasket is on the Left side of the engine but the cam cover..All of the tranny and TC Plugs look clean and yes I did have a clutch installed by TTP and few months ago but I trust that they know what they are doing and If not I think it would have showed up by now...if you guys have any other suggestions on what this problem could be let me know...I alos felt around the DP and there is no oil or anything on the DP...its clean

i have this problem too. it started about a month or less ago i can also smell it when i driving slow in traffic also.. so does anyone have any other idea?
i've also looked over every little thing and found nothing but the vent hole on the valve cover had a lil bit of oil on it but nothing i would think would cause this. i have lost absolutely no oil according to my dip stick

i love when i search for stuff and find a 4 year old thread =)
