Default 5 DTC's after a rough start the engine light came on.

1. PO442 - EVAP Emission Contr. sys. (small leak)
2. Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire detected.
3. cyl. 7 misfire detected
4. Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire detected.
5. cyl. 7 misfire detected

After they pulled the readings they were cleared. I drove 400 Km this weekend without issue or rough feel. The engine light has not come back nor have the starts been rough.

Another thing has to do with the smell of the engine. I had the TB and Tranny serviced a few weeks ago and my garage has smelled a bit like burning oil when I drive her a bit harder on the way home from work. I wrote it off as shop dust and drips during the service, but it has remained, and is worse with harder driving.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.

Default You should be fine

<center><img src="http://www.audipages.com/Tech_Articles/enginemechanical/tbp72.JPG"></center><p>If you have a 32 valve motor, you probably need to replace the gaskets on the back of the cam covers, they get compressed. If they are not replaced, they will leak.

As far as the codes go, just clear them and see if they return.
