Default Weird Cabin Smell & check engine-traction control lightbon

I have a11 isf with 38k on it. The other day the check engine and traction control light came on along with a weird Oder in the cabin. secondly I was short the quarts of oil.... I see no leaks. Any one experienced this?

You should get the code checked.

+1, AutoZone can do that for free if you stop by, at least from what I recall.

Fact that you don't see any leak, doesn't mean there isn't one somewhere. (Oil pan gasket)

The smell is a bit concerning though.

Who does your oil changes and what oil was used? Just curious.
