Is Oil Burning a Common Phenomenon for the Touareg V6?
1 Answers
According to feedback from numerous car owners, oil burning in the Volkswagen Touareg is quite common. Here are the specific reasons for oil burning: Wear of valve seals: Over time, the valves may wear out or age. Severe cases can affect the sealing of the valves, making oil burning more likely. Excessive piston clearance: With prolonged use of the car, incomplete combustion can lead to carbon deposits adhering to the piston rings. If not cleaned for a long time, this can enlarge the gap between the piston rings and the cylinder block, causing oil to flow into the combustion chamber and resulting in oil burning. In severe cases, it can even lead to 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), forming gummy carbon deposits.
