im sure danny said there is 1 breather under the inlet manifold that is split which is make it run poorly

but ive never seen them blow blue smoke out the back with an air leak,
 
would do a few vagcom logs on cf's and boost see if its getting closer to requested, wonder if you could down boost with lemewikis
 
Is there any thing i should check tomorrow while ive got a full day on it?

Im going to take off the Inlet manifold and remove all the Crank breathing pipes and clean them all out and repair ( see were its damaged) it....Should i do a Pressure test on it or not bother?

I was driving it earlier and it was fine just blowing very slightly once it got red hot....But will see what happens tomorrow when i start her up...
 
+Update+

I Left her over night and started her up in the morning so everything was cold..Soon as i started it up I had No Smoke/Steam what so ever..

i then took her to work and everthing warm up Yet no smoke then i got it really Hot (boost) with Loads of engine Braking and no smoke again....Even when i booted it i had no smoke...


I then came to my House and sat on idle and it started blowing a little bit but the longer i left it the more it start to disspear...

Got a video of the smoke its letting off and it stinks too lol..

Yup there is blue smoke there for sure.

Not too sure what else it can be other than the dreaded few, turbo, piston rings etc

Try removing your spark plugs and see if you have any oily deposites on them.

ive been told if it was the piston rings it would Smoke a hell of alot more than that....And if it was the valve stem seals it would smoke on start up and on engine breaking which it does neither off..

Strange..
 
Stop pissing around on here, get outside and fix it!!!! Take the pipes off from under the inlet and check them all for cracks and blockages. Also check the valve and pipe that runs back the tip is ok too and also not blocked. Once its all the pipes are fixed up then I would still get a pressure test done to make sure its al ok.

Ive not read the last page, but is there a blow from one of the turbo gaskets once the car is warm?
 
maybe too early in the morning for my eyes but i cant see anything on that video to worry about.

was it doing it before and you didnt see it ?

as alex said get them pipes under the inlet sorted out then start worrying if its still doing it
 
Right ive Fixed the small hole on the Breather system under the inlet manifold and cleaned and checked it was full of gunk & blocked...All Seems fine ive check my Tb pipe and thats clean (ish) too and the charge pipe looks alright too.

ive noticed i havent got any oil in it well just sat on Min on the dipstick so im gonna top it up with oil which grade do i need to go for? I took the spark plug out off cylinder one and thats perfectly fine no oil residue on it...

So im guessing the tubby is dead..
