Stage 2+ K04 Conversion Burning Oil

(1/2) > >>

K03MK5:
Hi all. Recently completed the K04 build and loving it.  Only thing I've notice is its burning oil like there is no tommorow.  Normal????

GVK:
How much we talking ? I seem to remember reading that VW state TFSI can use up to 1 litre every 1000km (621miles)

pudding:
My ED30 didn't use anything between 3-4000 oil changes, so something isn't right there.

White crusties on the spark plugs - the engine is burning it. Clean plugs - it's leaking past the turbine shaft seal.

K03MK5:
2 ltrs in one month didnt record mileage though.  It's on 155k but still.....   

ZoliWorks:
1 liter per 2k km or something like that is fine according to VW. This generation of the 2 liter burns oil. That's just how they are.
