  • Hi chaps new to seat ownership and the forum. But impressed so far with my 2008 fr ppd170.

  1. However I have an issue and I'm not sure which way to go with diagnosing the fault.

    Driving home this afternoon I noticed the exhaust note becoming a lot louder more like a deep single tone and the car felt flat like no power.

    Also a fair amount of blue smoke from the exhaust. This cleared when I took my foot off the gas and was ok for a bit but returned a little while later.

    I got home and led down by the side of the car and pressed the throttle to see of the exhaust was blowing and noticed the blue smoke. I did plug my vcds in but no fault coded were logged.

    I hope I've explained it well enough.
    I've done a key word search but haven't found anything relating to my symptoms.

    Cheers
    Neil
