Smell:

CAT aging is a real issue with N53s even at this mileage. Leaking injectors can cause damage to cats + some of these can burn oil especially when revved. Mine does like 1L every 5000km which seems fine according to BMW.

Pros: oil consumption seems fine

Cons: CAT aging, oil burning

Vehicle: BMW

Mileage: 5000 km
