It's done 89670 miles with full service history. The oil level is about half way and isn't black or nasty. I take it the crank breather pipe is the pipe that connects to the standard airbox at the far left at the back?
So if I have low compression I take it that's the piston rings going?

Oil breather smoking with BMC CDA
hey
Just fitted my BMC to my 6n2 gti and ive noticed when revving at idle (approx 3000-5000rpm) my crank case breather will give out a little puff of white smoke through the filter. Is this normal?
Its not a smoke screen or anything its only a tiny whisp of smoke but just checking with you lot ...

Which upper strut brace for 6n2?
Hey all
Been looking for a strut brace that doesnt need the header tank to be relocated. From pictures ive seen the OMP brace should be ok but thought i'd task you guys before i push the button.
cheers

Which strut brace?
Hey guys!
Just been looking at getting a strut brace fitted and read up that you need to relocate the header tank to do this on the 6n2's. Is there a brace which doesnt need this doing?
