it was like this

Oh it was moving way more than that. Didnt manage to unplug the CCV hose. I will try both and post the results.

Thats the problem, narrowing the issue down. I could replace both the cap and loom and still have issues. I started it cold and rested the oil cap on the filler and it was bouncing around a little. If there was a definitive way to test the CCV that would be ideal

Hi Invig, how did you test the CCV? Thanks Andy

I didnt manage to take any pictures but its definitely weeping from the bottom of the loom connector onto the head after cleaning everything up. I also noticed some residue around the oil cap. Any idea how to test the CCV? Can it be serviced or is it complete new rocker time?

Thanks Pedro, I will run the engine from cold with the oil cap unscrewed and rested on the filler. I am wondering still if its a symtom of excess pressure but I have no way of telling easily (or whether the ccv is blocked/restricted in some way). Ill add some pics when I get the chance also...

Hi folks, just come across this interesting post as also have a leak from the injector loom my 2006 Polo AXR PD100. It also has a stage 1 remap. Im wary of just replacing the loom as this could be a symptom rather than the cause, is there a definitive way of checking the CCV valve is all ok...
