Has anyone experienced oil in the air filter? Oil is also in the hose that leads from the air filter to the engine. During an oil change they said it might be oil blowing through the PCV valve.

Same thing happen to me, but became a serious problem because oil got into the lower intake manifold causing it to stay closed and thus, causing the car to stall when it should idle.
