do i have blown something?
hi,
i have a short question, evety time i hit boost (maximum is 8psi) my car smells like **** from burned oil.
maybe its the turbo because of black particles at the rear bumper but if the turbo burns all oil why can i smell it?
my thought was, maybe i have blown a piston ring or something and now have extrem blowby and because i have no catch tank at the valve cover i can smell everything?!
i have also very less power at the moment...
but the engine fells ok, no funny noises or bad running engine or something... everything is fine, only the power is gone ;-) i think the best would be to make a compression test to see or what do you think?
Thanks
Malte.

Re: do i have blown something? (mrx)
Could be rings or turbo seals turbo drain clogged, or the PCV isnt working as well in the upper RPM.s Do a compression and leak down and post the number so we can help a little more.
