its normal mate - check out a link i posted in my pancake pipe thread

if its an excessive amount and your car is burning a lot of oil then its time to be worried  :sad:

i thought I had problems but the car doesn't use any oil in between services  :smiley:

pancake pipe is for the TDI's mate not the 1.8T's

are you on about the turbo to pancake pipe?? don't think there is any uprated hose for that  :undecided:

here are a few pics of it all done. is it ok with my d/v where it is ??? seems to run as good at allways has.  i am waiting on a 007p to get to me. and also my tip .
took it out for a quick run and all seems good sounds more throaty to me ??? and the whistle is alot louder also, but i also think the whistle has a sort of rythmic  sound when foot is down around about 4-5k  but still pulls strong...
