tomvr 0 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Have you checked the rocker cover gasket as mine was leaking and filling all my spark plug holes with oil. A new gasket and some silicon sump sealant works a treat. Link to post Share on other sites

boostjunkie 0 Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 also I havebeen told by a VW that VR6 engines after 100k or so can loose oil pressure mainly on cylinder #5 this causes premature ring wear,that and the fact alot of VR6 engines are 100k on their original hg's, oil pumps etcMine has this also and the plug on 6 I get a white crystaline deposit, which is probably a weaping hg lolBut the bugger is still running gonna do the lot when it stops Link to post Share on other sites
