Title: inlet manifold breather pipe
Post by: km on 31 January 2012, 14:22

replaced mine couple months back with a silicone one. noticed that it's covered in oil today.

took it off to check for splits, but it's all good. maybe i didn't tighten it as much as i thought, but i'm not sure.

took the car for a drive, coincidentally, drives better than it should. no lumpy idle, no stalling when pulling off.

is there any other reason why it's covered in oil? and do the symptons have any connection?

some say that the inter cooler gathers some oil,maybe a good clean-flush should cure it,hows the tb looking like?
