after the denver meet i relized my car was acting a little funny i.e. making weird noise and what not. went to start my car this moring notice a little smoke... well. as the day went on smoke got a lot worse.. not its smoking while i am driving. its blue smoke. when i step on the gas it still boosts up like normal but kinda bogs down just a little. then more smoke.. any ideas??? i was told to clean the maf..but anyone else?

blue smoke means running rich i think! have you cleaned your injectors ever? i would recommend a can of B&G 44k and how about spark plugs?

951boostmoore · « **Reply #2 on:** April 27, 2009, 09:40:06 PM »

it seems like your car is running rich. i would have to say bad maf or fuel pressure regulator. im going to say maf. i had to replace a maf on a bug about two months ago with same prob

what does everyone else think?

just changed the plugs today thinking it would help. and added a gas additive to the tank

those were my thoughts. the plugs were gray and a little wet

if you keep running with this problem you will foul the plugs again and have to buy new ones.

i am having to add oil now when i didnt be for. but gas milage is way down.

0dd_j0b · « **Reply #7 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:11:40 PM »

sounds EXACTLY like mine...only i dont think you are using lucas oil thickener and 60 weight oil... i went from 30 mpg down to around 24. once i get the 16v Scirocco im gonna do a rebuild on this here 8v

951boostmoore · « **Reply #8 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:15:05 PM »

i got confused. blue smoke is oil and black smoke is fuel. useally rings and seals go bad if the engine got hot. your bug is pretty new so cant be of age.

0dd_j0b · « **Reply #9 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:19:20 PM »

do you shift at higher RPM's often? yes blue = oil black = fuel purple = gay. =) do you have purple smoke coming out your tailpipe?

sleeper bug · « **Reply #10 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:20:48 PM »

no its blue

scurvy_bandit · « **Reply #11 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:22:10 PM »

It could be the seals in the turbo...

951boostmoore · « **Reply #12 on:** April 27, 2009, 10:23:31 PM »

Sounds like the seals in the turbo to me... Just wait for a few minutes and one of the 1.8T guys will chime in. I think Oliver and Mark Johnson both had the same issue, and it ended up being the turbo

I think a unicorn jumped up and poked holes in the muffler also. Oh and he is shitting in your filters.

Seriously get the turbo checked out.

i've never had a turbo car till my audi , so i don't know much about them but when i bought it it was doing the same thing the dealer replaced the turbo and the problem is gone

plus you drive a girls car

don't worry they don't call my car bitch basket for nothing

oh and if you want to drive your car like a mad man be ready to break and blow stuff up been there , done that

sleeper bug · « **Reply #21 on:** April 28, 2009, 08:34:54 PM »

here is the status. i cleaned my maf and now its running better ALOT less smoke. but it still acting funny. so its gotta be the turbo. time to upgrade!!

when i get the money

951boostmoore · « **Reply #22 on:** April 28, 2009, 08:40:08 PM »

that sucks man. it might just be a bad maf if you cleaned it and it ran a little better. the smoke did look a little blue so it could very well be the turbo. check up on that warenty.

German Boy · « **Reply #23 on:** April 28, 2009, 11:31:34 PM »

1) Do you have a boost gauge? If so log your boost pressure and notice as the turbo gets warmer if the smoke increases and the boost falls, or decreases. 2) If the MAF is covered in oil or has a good amount of oil this is also an indicator of bad Turbo. 3) Do you have unusual noise not good noise from the turbo? Or higher pitch or loose bearing sound? 4) Does the car hold a good idle, or normal? And you still produce smoke. All these are indicators of a bad turbo. Real way to check is look in the turbo, or a turbo replacement. If you are able to look at the fins on the spool, look for bent/missing deformed blades. And check impeller movement, in and out to be exact. I hope this helps, best of luck keep us posted.

Barry · « **Reply #24 on:** April 29, 2009, 10:42:14 AM »

I can't possibly imagine how a MAF that is not functioning properly will cause the motor to burn oil. burning oil only comes from bad rings, valve stems, or bearings/seals in a turbo...
