Audi tt mk1engine nightmare.

Post by Nedstark »

I have a 2002 audi tt mk1 bam engine code. She started using oil and smoked under load. Had the turbo fixed and she ran well. After about 5000km the smoking started again but now the plugs foul up every few 100km and she uses allot of oil. No oil in the intercooler pipes. Any idea? I had the head done. They did the guides,seals and faced the valves. Motor runs quiet.

Check the breather pipe coming off the crank case, i had this issue before and it was kinked, causing back pressure into the sump and the oil was pushing back up the return line to the turbo...

Not saying that this is your issue, but just something to check. Hope it helps
