I was given a Passat loaner today with the EA288 TDI. It was my first time driving the new engine so I was looking around under the hood when I got home and noticed some soot staining back by the turbo. See picture below.
Started the motor and sure enough smelled diesel exhaust from behind the motor.
Anyone with an EA288 see this soot staining on their motors? I realize this is a loaner car but nonetheless only has 700 miles on it and appears to have a leak.
