my Avant has recently developed an oil leak, which I noticed from the terrible smell of burning oil and the smoke cloud from the bonnet at a standstill.
It's not noticeable on a short steady run, but give it any beans & it's terrible.
Had a quick look & it seems oil is dripping onto the exhaust down-pipe.
Allsorts is going through my mind now. cracked manifold ? head gasket? turbo oil feed or return? turbo leaking?
Are there any common faults in this area. & do they have easy (and inexpensive) fixes.
Yours hopefully, Steve (batty)
