smell
i have a strange smell come into the car after a long run when i stop and let it idle it smells like burning oil but no visible leaks and no smoke coming from exhaust is it possible it could be the turbo leaking oil
or, another common problem that manifests itself in a burning smell, is leaking fluid from your power steering reservoir.
It seems that the pipework between the reservoir and the pump can sometimes leak, or the fluid can boil in the reservoir on long runs/high revs and work its way out. Do a search on power steering fluid, as Pete Croney (ScoobySport) recommends upgrading the fluid to prevent it from boiling.
