1.6FSI (octavia II) drinking oil and running rough...

Featured Replies

I'm sure I'm burning oil somewhere as getting through a tank of oil in about 700miles!

Also, the car seems to be "running rough" - jsut a bit hesitant at low revs, and idles like a pig!

I've a feeling i'll need to take it into the garage to get it sorted, but wanted to check here as to common problems that I could have a look at myself?

Was planning on taking out the coil/spark plugs to see if there's a particular cylinder affected (oil residue/burnt plug).

Any other common sites for oil to be lost from? (there's no obvious oil leak on the drive etc, so sure it's not coming 'out' of the car!)

Cheers,

Ian

Have you checked in the exhaust? Is it 'smoking'
