I am absolutely stumped on this one... I have a persistent odor of burning oil when I park my car and turn the HVAC to "fresh air." I have searched this vehicle thoroughly for leaks, and brought it to the dealer to check for leaks, and there appear to be none... I'm at a loss here... has anyone else experienced this?

Sometimes when i get out of the MO after a drive, I can smell burning oil around the hood area. Smells more like ATF than engine oil. Never had any drips on the ground and the levels never drop. I have notice a wet spot on the driver side half shaft by the CVT seal.
