Also been looking at my "pancake pipe" the pipe to the turbo from the intercooler and it looks fooked, could this be why i am getting white smoke oil getting in there ? also i only noteist today that its not always white some times it black when it comes out of the exhaust and then gose white when its out a bit :huh:
I am getting it on a code reader tomorrow at my mates garage to check it out, i am guessing sh!t loads of codes well be kicked up so GET READY FOR A POST TOMORROW LOL
Thanks

on mine the side pieces are completely shot so i'm going to be ordering some of those (might be a few months yet lol)
get a new o-ring and clip for that connection - take it off and clean it up. Looks like you've been leaking boost from there? :undecided:

i was thinking of replacing the hole lot at some point but want to do it on the cheap as always lol, thinking of bogging it together till then just need to lift it up off the floor lol
ill do it tomorrow going to see if the VW up road from my mates has the o-ring in also would that be causing my smoke?
also the o-ring part number is it = 3co 145 117 ?
and the pipe from the pancake pipe to the turbo is that silicon or plastic i never checked when i had it up on the jack.
thanks

The side pieces are £50 or thereabouts in total so not cheap
Not sure on the part number. On mine its metal but I know on some TDI's it was plastic :undecided:
If the o-ring is perished or the pipe loose then yeah it will cause black smoke and loss of performance

Side pieces are only 24 each from VW so they will be cheaper from TPS. Had to buy one last month.

looking at the pic posted and the covering of oil as Rhys has said you have been leaking boost from there i would guarantee you that you HAVE been leaking boost :wink: as said fit the relevant parts and clean it all up and you'll be fine

Not 100% sure even looking at your pic due to the amount of oil/dirt on the pipe for piece of mind and also they are pennies i'd just get a new clip anyway also it will have better tension being new whereas the old one will be worn etc etc :wink:

Got a new image today after work, dose it look like the clip has moved up the pipe towards the turbo ?

Also i think its kicked a load of oil and sh!t on my belts well this be a problem?
-
Oks i ve fitted the New o-ring, by the looks of it it had had the wrong o-ring in it. Also the connection doesn't seam right you can pull the pipes apart i ve got to replace the clip still but i don't think it well make much of a difference any ideas?

Also went to my mates garage and stuck the car on the mobile fault scanner, came up with some faults which was:-
Airbag Faulted - intermittent power faulty or something like that
Radio Faulted - Ariel somthing
Engine electronics Faulted - Thermostat i belive
Clocks Faulted - Something to do with the Thermostat
was something about door module and something else related with the Thermostat i think
Thanks
