blue smoke and rattles
Working on sorting my new s2 erst out, let me explain what has gone on and what i have done so far.
Ok well it was very temperemental upon start up so i leaned the idle mix down and it starts first time (pretty much) now... still neads some leaning up i think.
When it is started and up to operating temperature, when revved there is some blue smoke coming out the exhaust, not plumes but it is definately noticeable.
I took the air inlet pipe to the turbo today and noticed that it was covered in oil, all the way into the airfilter housing.... i cleaned it all up and while i was there checked the play in the turbo shaft.... there is definately some play there but not a huge amount.. both laterally and longitudinally... i cant really measure it but you can feel some there but not a great deal.
I then put everything back together and there is still some smoking there... also there is some rattling coming from the top end.... so much so that it sounds like a diesel engine.. I changed the breather pipes over and it is still making the noise.
Also the smoke is still coming out the back. I have done a compression test and it measured 9 bar accross all 4 cylinders.
Any ideas on advice and where to take it from here?
Cheers
