As you may remember from my last thread post(below) my car decided to blow coolant and oil into my (guess goes here). The dealer said that the crankcase breather valve froze up due to my garage being insanely humid(true) and the Wisconsin climate sucking ***(also true[-20 for a week straight<yes, NEGATIVE 20>])
Anyways. So I was on the side of everyone here in thinking that the stealership was full of beans. So they drained out the oil from my hoses, intercoolers, etc and sent me off(with $210 less in my pocket).
I took it very easy for a few days and checked the coolant level and oil level. PERFECT. So I decided to beat the hell out of it on my way back from work(after letting the oil hit peak temp[which is about 175 in this weather]). Pulled into my garage, waited, checked fluids. Perfect. No drips under the car, the coolant tank hasn't gone down even a mm, oil hasn't gone down a drop... Oh man, life is good.
Now I should probably replace that breather valve so I don't have to idle the car for 15 minutes before driving to heat it up.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/2576773.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/2576773.phtml</a</li></ul>
