gav speaks the truth... heck, we've all lost the love at some stage - i think the only surviving bit of mine is the shell and carpets!! i've replaced the rest of it over the years.....
ok dude. you can buy no9 from vw. it comes with a new no16 as part of it. BUT.... about £100 ish... also have a search on here for "pcv valve" or crankcase breather.. you should find answers for your quest. like this http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?281068.post or http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?232789.post
ha ha ha .... goes under the carpet, right hand side, by the side to side rail the front of the seat slides on. official description is . . . . ."cover cap" ... pic is lhd, so just mirror image it for rhd....
all i can say is what the heck is that!!!!??????? having been a vw parts man for 7 years, and stripped my interior plenty of times i thought i would know.... but you have me stumped. for now....
old ww2 control tower..... does involve some fence hopping to get there, which i can't do at the mo..... but hopefully will be able to in a few weeks time...
but he has said it runs fine?. that is why i thought of oil cooler, as it gives the same symptoms as head gasket (Creamy oil,slight loss of water) but of course the engine runs fine cos the headgasket is ok..??? plus we used to sell quite a few when i worked for vw too....
could be the oil cooler has broken internally. as said, get a headgasket test done, if it isn't that, then i would look at oil cooler. does the car drive ok?
i was thinking of the alice lisle pub russ, is nice in there and plenty of parking. could go for a play in the sand pit after? or drive through the forest back towards soton way... when i am back on my feet i'll get my thinking head on.
