Oil smell in cabin when sitting idle

[LEE.XF.R.SPORT]

Hello boys and girls. Im getting an Oil smell in the car when at rest. Is this a known problem?  I find people on forums are fountains of knowledge. This is my first jaguar. It's a 2.0 r-sport. Im just hoping it's not the ingenium kiss of death. The service history on line is bang up to date. Next Oil change on the app says 10145 miles but I'm going to get an Oil change done anyway the last was sept last year.

Hi Lee, you don't say whether this has just started or has been with the car since it came to you. Is it hot Oil smell, or simply an oily smell as you would get with a spill of fresh Oil onto the carpet?

Hi. It has been getting worse over the last few weeks. I took the Oil cap off the car today while it was running and there seems to be a lot of blow by. Im hoping it's a blocked breather

Good call, check the simple and easy fix stuff first. The breather would be an obvious thought.
