Oil leak-sort of.
Hi guys, have a little problem where oil is getting pushed passed oil cap? Replaced oil cap, and found one of the breather pipes off, after sorting that it stopped for a while but now it's back again. Any ideas? :Confused:

If you post more detail like what engine it is, MJ i'm sure will know the likely candidates to look for |

Engine is 2.8. I'm starting to feel bad now, I've asked MJ so many questions :ROFL: |
Might be a broken or duff PCV Valve causing too much pressure - not too expensive for another one. . . .+++

I've got a spare one kicking around somewhere, I'll see if there's a part number on it if I can find it.
Edit: 077 103 245 B Loads on eBay. Not sure of the condition of the diaphragm in mine though it works OK. I think it's the same unit for loads of different VAG engines. |

There are only 4 components in the whole thing: plastic top and bottom (clip together), spring and orange diaphragm. Happy to sell it for a fair price. I think I changed mine because of my weird engine problems that dragged on for ages where I was trying everything; which all turned out to be a hair-trigger brake switch. |

Ok stupid question, bit where does the valve go? Couldn't find it for life of it :Confused:

Take the engine cover off and it's staring you in the face at the back in the middle.
You might need a Clic-R tool to get it off easily. |
