piston rings or turbo??

ok the oil seals went in my turbo so got a 2nd hand one cheap but its not smoking as bad as the 1st turbo was? its still blowing lots of oil out the dv. i toke out the sparks and they had oil on them? the car seems to be runnig sound bar the oil out the dv and the smoke when you rev it after idleing? is it just the turbo shagged or is there piston rings gone? the oil was on all 4 spark plus, can anyone help??

sounds to me like an engine breathing problem same happened me , if u pull the pipe of going from the rocker cover to the inlet manifold leaving the pipe on the inlet and plug it a bolt that wil tell u if u have a breathing trouble worth a try ;)

well that bit that is on the rocker cover is leaking, but i cant see how that would make a dif? and make it blow oil out the dv? mabey im wrong?

my mates got a golf mark 1 with a 20v turbo in it, the turbo seals went and we replaced the turbo with a brand new 1 and still it was reaking out the back.

we removed the intercooler pipes and cleaned out all the excess oil and put it back together and it run spotless no reek so try that mate. its something simpe that could help alot.

same thing happened to me word for word. did a comp test and cylinder 3 and 4 were lower then the rest and 3 was way lower. also my head gasket had blown so oil and water was getting into my cylinders...


rebuild time

the breather on the rocker cover if there is lots of oil coming out of it ur pistons will prob be cracked
