Title: Oil spray!?
Post by: vwfiend on 02 April 2011, 19:28

Hi all, today i noticed a little mark between my splitter and bumper on the front of my car so assumed that id either hit a rabbit or someone had spilled a drink. I then went to have my tracking checked and saw a lot of oil sprayed over the inside of the inner arch and arond the pancake pipe area. Im thinking that its oil residue that over the past year has built up and is coming out of either a perished pipe or out of my home made blanking plate to cover where the map sensor would be on an AUM or AUQ engine. Its an AGU with Forge FMIC and no catch can and no blue smoke from exhaust..... Cheers for any help and ideas   :smiley:
