burning oil smell

has anyone had a issue with engine oil smell at a stop after installing catch can. I installed catch can in 1,000 miles ago and started getting a burning oil smell when at a stop car has been checked at dealer for any leaks and nothing found. Iv even checked the car myself and haven't been able to find anything anyone else having a problem.

I guess the first thing to do would be to take the catch can off and see if you still smell it.

Check for a loose clamp or leaky catch can.

I have the same problem. About a week ago I could smell burnt oil in the car. I don't smell it in the car anymore but I still smell it in the garage. I looked for a leak and found nothing. I installed a Mishimoto catch can a couple months ago. Drained it last week and only got a couple ounces out of it.
