[s-cars] Guzzling oil....

[Lino M. Valadas]

Riff,

Remove the accordion hose under the engine at the IC.  See if there is any
oil in there and if so how much?  It could be your turbo oil seals letting
go.  if this is the case I guess you could say your are burning oil but
through the intake not in the "engine burning oil" sense.

Keep us posted.

loves) to consume oil at the rate of ~1 qt per 700 mi.  Now I *think* the
Audi spec say that this is perfectly normal (at least I remember this on my
old CQ) but it seems steep to me.  FYI there is only very little smoke on
start up, and none I see during driving.  Also there are no oil puddles in
the driveway.

pump, shoulld this concern me??  BTW I have not taken off the turbo hoses to
see if it is going that route.
