I’ve got a 2006 VW Jetta TDI 1.9 BRM. I’m seeing a little oil build up inside the intake tube between the discharge of the intercooler and the flapper valve. I did a cranking compression test with all cylinders being between 25-1/2 to 27 Bars (370 to 390 psi). I’m wondering where the oil is coming from? I’m thinking it’s the turbocharger but why? Bad seal, oil return tube not draining right or can the EGR system causing this?
The engine has 192K miles, has a recent new camshaft, belt and water pump kit. 4K on a complete engine and transmission service including a new DMF. While idling the engine is very smooth. However, I can see a black oily mess building up inside the intake manifold.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Steve.
