Oil in the air filter (Passat)
I have a 1982 Passat 1600CL Estate.
I have just had a new head gasket and there seems little wear in the engine. No smoke from the exhaust. Still torky. BUT I am getting oil blown into the air filter from the air breather. I got the garage to clean out the chamber on the rocker cover. Could it still be blocked? Will I need a new rocker cover ? ALSO Does anybody know where I can get seat covers that cover the back seats, which are about 30-70% Cheers for any help. |

Sounds like you do have some wear in the rings - suggest you get a compression test done. I. |

Many thanks for your suggestion.
Would this be an uneconomical repair considering the age of the car ?
