For the last few months, I've noticed, at idle, a gradual oil burning smell coming from the vents and the engine of my car. I brought it to my dealership and they found oil build up in the valleys of the intake and with further inspection found both turbos going bad. So, they replaced both turbos and all injectors...Luckily I'm under warranty! After a few days of driving, I noticed the smell again. It's back at the dealership and they are now replacing the valve stem seals as well as a high pressure fuel pump, which has been causing a slight tapping/ticking noise. My x6 only has 45k miles on it. Is this common? Has anyone else had these problems?
