After My last post I noticed when I took the air box cover off it was full of gunk and mayo looking stuff, Then I found the breather Pipe, There was to my surprise more of this my Question to you Is best ways to clean it and sort this out as I wanna have this car for at-least a year (for no claims and that) also I have a blowing exhaust but When I go into a higher gear i get a loud vibration from my engine I put oil in and boom its not as loud so Im worried it might be something expensive due to that breather pipe etc

Hi, i fitted an air filter to my car and plumbed the cam case breather back into the inlet but it just sucked up oil from the engine into the inlet and flooded my engine. Is it done correctly or shall i get a catch tank?

Hi! Basically my problem is i'm losing about a litre of oil every month. I have a 1.4 16v lupo S with 103k miles and k&n induction kit. I noticed when fitting the kit a few months ago that the crankcase breather pipe had disintegrated somewhat, the rubber had collapsed and the degraded, but not leaking. This morning while topping up the oil i noticed some mayo / sludge under the filler cap, I have not lost any coolant so I don't think it's the head gasket. So my question is do you think the cause of the oil loss/sludge is the collapsed breather pipe? If so what is the part number and can I change it easily myself? My engine code is AHW, cable throttle. thanks in advance!

Seems to be all going wrong lately: Had the MOT a few weeks ago and it scraped through on emissions. Checked the oil last week, and since September it had used absolutely all of it! Decided to look in the air filter for "mayo" and there was some. Just a bit confused, as there's no mayo on the oil filler cap, in the air filter it was only on the right hand side, and obviously there was a bit of it in the breather pipe on the air-box. Looked around what other people have done and they seem to be conflicting, don't think it's the HG because it drives fine. http://fav.me/d4j2u7v http://fav.me/d4j2uek http://fav.me/d4j2ud6
