Blown head gasket on 2010 Hyundai Elantra with 18,000 miles, no warnings, first smelled something burning then noticed engine covered with oil and oil dripping to the ground, did not overheat. The gasket was replaced and I was told that the gasket was porous in an area (on the corner) and this is where the oil was coming out.
