270000 on my 2000 lx rallycross car
Hi guys,
2005 Ford Lynx RS 2.0 FSDE (also known as Mazda Protege) owner here and its a love and hate relationship. Got the car last 2015 with 118,000 kms on it and spent a ton on replacing many parts but i love the feeling everytime i get to do these, i guess i really love my car. 146,000+ kms and mine eats up oil like crazy as well. I have just read the 59 page ( https://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123700949-FS-DE-Oil-System/page59 ) about the FS DE's oil system but i have not seen from anyone's post who experienced a burnt oil smell from the aircon vents whenever i do spirited drivings. Any idea guys?
Thanks in advance!

probably there's a leak in the engine somewhere. but are there any aircon intakes within the engine bay? from what i understand the air conditioning system gets air within the cabin specially if the lever is placed to the recirculation part.
