Why oh why is this happening again!!
« on: 06 December 2009, 22:05 »
As some of you may know i've recently done the k03s conversion on my agu and made 219bhp with a slipping clutch!

So whilst sorting out the cash to do the vr6/g60 clutch setup, i noticed the car started smoking again (blue smoke).This only happens when the car is at full running temp and only when you pull away in 1st, does not smoke on boost or during drive.

Spoken with Nick and he says it could be the PCV or valve stems. Anyone else have any ideas?

The car did this before with the cracked k03 turbo, but it was much worse.

Please help  :cry: :cry:

How much oil is in it?

1.8T's can smoke if overfilled even a little bit  :smiley:

How many miles have you done since having a new turbo?

Hmmm was just thinking it could be burning off the oil from when the turbo went  :undecided:

Sounds like valve stem seals.
