Does the Touareg 2.5T V6 engine burn oil?
1 Answers
According to feedback from many car owners, the Volkswagen Touareg has a relatively common phenomenon of burning oil. The following are the specific reasons for burning oil: Worn valve seals: Over time, the valves may wear out or age. If the condition is severe, it can affect the sealing of the valves, making it easy for oil to burn. Excessive piston clearance: When a car has been used for a long time, unburned carbon deposits may accumulate on the piston rings. If not cleaned for a long time, this can lead to an expansion of the gap between the piston rings and the cylinder, causing oil to flow into the combustion chamber and resulting in oil burning. In severe cases, it may even cause engine seizure. Excessive oil level: If the oil level is too high and exceeds the maximum mark, the excess oil can easily enter the combustion chamber (due to excessive internal pressure) and produce gummy carbon deposits.
