Does the Passat have serious oil burning issues?
1 Answers
Oil burning in the Passat is not a common phenomenon. This situation is closely related to car maintenance and the owner's usage habits. Consequences of oil burning: It leads to incomplete combustion of gases in the engine's combustion chamber, resulting in increased carbon deposits, reduced vehicle power performance, and sluggish acceleration. It also causes increased fuel consumption, more severe tailpipe emissions pollution (potentially exceeding standards), and heavier financial burden on the owner. Solutions for oil burning: Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the entire oil lubrication system, thoroughly clean combustion residue carbon deposits, ensure smooth operation of intake and exhaust valves, replace aged or damaged valve stem seals and crankshaft seals, and finally reduce the clearance between engine cylinders to maintain proper engine temperature.
