Had the Oil breather put on by volkswagen this afternoon after a few consumption issues i have to bring it back in after 1000 miles or until the oil light pop's up !
and then they will see if it is necessary to take it to the next step !

The polo is in on Wednesday for final diagnosis then I should be getting a new engine ! The breather mod has helped but the oil usage still seems to be out of spec !

The work took two days to do which was reasonable it was just the faffing about with getting invoices and job cards which took ages almost a week after getting it back I on,y just got the paperwork!
The car is running a lot better since the job has been done , I've been allowing the engine oil temp to get to 85degrees before I will even consider putting in any high revs and giving it a good variety at the rev range once its there ! Checked my oil level last night after 250 miles and no change what so ever , before the engine replacement was carried out it would be on at lease 60% on the dip stick.
