Post by nick01202 »

HEY GUYS,

I am in need of help for my polo 1.6 gti 6n2..I have loads of oil in my engine bay and after looking it looks like its been shooting out from the oil breather pipe and has gone all over my air filter/induction kit and all over the engine bay. Is their anyway of stopping this and also the breather pipe has gone all soft can anyone recommend what I can do..

cheers nick

Where is your breather pipe fed into if you've got an induction kit?

You should have as a minimum a breather filter on it. You cant just have it open into the engine bay....
