On my way back from a volunteer event for Dakota County I pulled into the garage and smelled a terrible smell. Like burning oil, and guess what it was.
The oil cap in my car was gone, I looked around and it had popped off and was fortunately sitting over on the right of the engine block. However, it no longer would attach to the engine. I ordered a replacement, and I could see that some little tabs had broken off, this riser piece that was added to this oil cap the year before my model.
Apparently, it was added so the oil wouldn't splash up and hit the cap I guess, but it introduced another point of failure I guess.
