Car Problem...Someone Help Me ASAP?

If the engine is buring oil, it usually smells like burned toast. Check the oil level on the dipstick to see if the oil is low (add oil as needed to bring it back up to the full mark. DO NOT let the engine oil level get too low or serious engine damage will result!. Do a compression check or leak down test to diagnose worn pistons or rings. The underlying cause may be worn or broken piston rings, worn or damaged cylinders, worn valve guide or valve guide seals. A PVC valve could also be at fault leaking oil into the intake.
