Blue Smoke - KV6

ElHocko · 18th June 2018, 07:27

Hallo everybody!

i got a problem with my kv6, it started six months ago.
While accelerating i saw a big blue smoke cloud coming out of my exhaust.
Fun fact is that this just happend from time to time. Only about once per month, and i am driving around 1000km per month.
Now it happens more often.

I checked the PCV System and found a lot of oil sitting in the inlet/throttle.

I already searched in the forum. It seems that i dont have the known problem of a blocked PCV as i am getting a lot of oil through the system.

What would you suggest me to do?

Will an oil catcher solve the topic?
I dont think that it is normal to have that much oil in the PCV.
I checked my oil level like the forum explained it. It is more around "low" than to high.

As a next step i would check my compression. Perhaps i have a lot of blowby.

I am thankful for any advise or idea!

Have a nice day!
