My '96 E320 has 85K miles and it needed a new head gasket about 10K miles ago. Now I (once in a mile) smell of burning oil again.. It's hard for me to believe that a head gasket would go out again within 10K miles. I read somewhere in the past that this model has a notorious oil leak at another location but I can't seem to find that info. Can someone help!
Thanks

Is it a V6 or I6, i too heard about the V6 problems with the head gaskets and spark plug harness problems that i avoid them...
