Ever since I've had my 07' 335i (N54) I've noticed that at random times....I will get a puff of smoke out of the exhaust that smells like oil. It might do it twice a day, or it might do it twice a month..very random.
It only does it at cruising speed under no load, or at an idle. Acceleration, deceleration....no issues. Runs like a champ, no codes, no issues. I installed one of the RB PCV valves thinking that might help...nope. New flapper valve on the PCV system....no change.
Could it just be oil building up in the PCV system, and then randomly dumping it into the intake? Should my next step be to install a catch can?
I'm pretty sure it's not turbo seals.......it's too random.
Ideas?
