Alex-Bone94 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 It can be a number of things tbh mate, have you checked for leaks? Does the car let out blue smoke? Could possibly be piston rings, stem seals if it's burning oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treblet Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 The back of Sports and GTIs always end up sooty due to the upturned exhaust.Sports are prone to valve stem seal wear and are renowned for burning oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
