HI all ☺️
So every now and then I get a smell of oil in the cabin when driving (not all the time and it’s hard to pin point when or how)
And since I bought the car a few month ago I filled the oil up and it’s already to the 1/4 mark (in around 2 months)
So I cleaned the engine area thoroughly with cloths and brake cleaner and sure enough there are puddles of oil in certain areas 😔
so where to start? Photos attached to help diagnose.
It’s hard to get a lot of light in the area
But it looks like a lot of build up of oil around injector 1 and some on injector 2 area
There is a bit of oil on the rear top left area on the torx bolt for the gasket cover and just behind the top left of the gasket cover at the right side of the turbo bracket with the missing bolt
