burnt oil odor

After driving uphill 2700 -3000rpms, an odor fills the cabin that smells like hot oil smoke. No odor going downhill. The dealer replaced chain tensioner a while back.
Anyone else experience this ? Thanks for your reply.

I got that 2 but I checked my oil and saw it was low (but not below the limit). Did an oil change and it's all good.
