I smelled something burning when driving. Found oil leaking on ground. I checked and found oil leaking from oil filter. Oil filter had loosened. I tightened it more than one full turn. See later.

I noticed a burning smell with engine running. Checked oil filter (from previous experience) and found it loose. Tightened it one and one half turns. (Last oil change by Feduke Ford). Discussed this with service manager at Feduke, but was given no definitive answer about cause of leak, at next service ( 12/05/11).

Since I have had my car, I have had an oil burning smell in my heater or ac when I am idling at a stop light...too many in my city. I have taken my car in and explained the problem. They have attributed these problems to something else..coolant reservoir problem, radiator, problem, etc. However, the problem is still there. Plus, my car engine light came on a few days ago for a day and a half (the yellow engine light which means go get it looked at...red means stop your car, I am told). After a day and a half, the indicator light went off. It funs fine. When the light was on, the engine ran rough, especially at idle.
