poss valve cover gasket leak. poss under warranty at the repair shop,have them look at it
Often caused by cam bore plug seal, cam seal or cam chain tensioner seal leaking oil from rear of engine onto exhaust system.
My friend Bill and I looked at the Dipstick area where oil seemed to be smoking and then condensing. We pulled the dipsticks "O" ring off and replaced it . I got a pkg of ten various sizes from Advance Auto. This seems to have stopped it.. I'll let you know .. "Gordy"...Oh yeah, A Woman at a VW dealer had mentioned this to me quite sometime ago .. I didn't think it to have any merit.. I hope She was right.We'll see !!! Thanks again, ...................Dave..AKA Gordy !
