help!!! smoke on over-run, 1.8t
« on: 24 August 2014, 14:38 »
driving the car normally the car is chucking out a lot of smoke but if i put my foot on accelerator it stops smoking or if i put foot on clutch/ out of gear it stops... spoke to a few people they seem to think oil seals on turbo have gone, but im running a bigger turbo with standard 150 inter cooler... anyone got any advice? head gasket etc is all fine.. thanks!

what turbo you running? and why would you be using a standard IC with an uprated turbo?
take one of the lower boost pipes off (the pancake pipe would be easiest for you) if oil streams out of it then your oil seals are shot
