Inaccessible oil seal is leaking, allowing oil to drip onto hot exhaust system so it smells of burning oil when I drive. My import mechanic says it's expensive to fix -- if I want to get it fixed then I should go to the dealer and have them drop the AWD drivetrain just to replace the seal. This only makes sense doing if there's already a problem with the AWD which there isn't.
