Hi all,
The car in question is a 2014 A3 with a 1.4 TFSI engine.
Lately the engine has started to consume more and more oil so I started investigate the cause.
With the engine running I took the oil filler cap off and pressed my hand against the hole. There is definitely pressure instead of suction from the crankcase, so I'm assuming the PCV system is clogged somewhere.
Any suggestions how to find the blockage?
Apparently these newer TSI/TFSI engines have an integrated PCV system instead of one that you can just bolt off and put a new one in.
So, what should I do next?
