Default Smoke and burning smell from a/c-heater!!!!

My wife has been complaining of a bad smell from the heater/Aircon in the car for a while, but the other morning she said she actually spotted smoke!!!!

This is a 2005 S-type, thankfully still in warranty (just) but does anyone have any ideas?

yes easy, if its a v8 leaking cam covers, and a v6 leaking IMT orings. Both leaking oil onto the exhaust manifold and drawn into the ac.heat system through the freash air intake at the base of the hood. Come by tommorrow and see Michelle at Mommentum and ask her to have me fix it for you......
