• Mk6 Golf 1.4tsi seems to be using more oil as time goes on.

    Is this just the way OF small turboed VAG's? (it's using much less than some of the other horror stories you get online). But just want to be sure it's not indicative of anything else.

    There is what looks like oil debris around what I think is the turbo.

    Also is there a good safe way to seal a small oil bottle? Our oil is from a big multi litre bottle, so wondering about decanting some into an oil small bottle for emergencies over Xmas.

  • Actually thinking about this, is there an issues with pcv valve?
    Seems to be a a thing now. If the car is running rough at idle, or down on power it could be a stuck pcv.

    How would I confirm this? A code reader? - I have one so maybe I'll run it.

    It's not noticeable down on power, but I don't drive like a hooligan but in sport it accelerates well enough from stop or at 30 up to 70 if joining a motorway.
