Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I changed the oil before a track event. I may have overfilled by about 1/2 quart. I noticed last night a 1 tbsp. oil puddle under the left side that appeared to be running down the front the top of the motor. I couldn't see any oil slinging from the top of the motor. I thought I detected a slight bit of exhaust smoke yesterday afternoon. Last night I wiped the oil off and restarted. I detected no smoke and this morning, the motor was still dry. I'm just wondering if some oil could have overflowed, possibly through the A/o separater? I'm throwing no engine codes. This was CMP and the car was throwned around quite a bit. This track is hard on the left side as it has some hard right turns. Other than smoke and engine code, what's are symptoms if I did get oil in the separater?

The most common symptom is clouds of white smoke bellowing out your pipes on startup....

POST 3Original post

1/2 a quart is sure to get oil in your intake.... this is common (especially during DE). Alot of people runs 1/2 a quart less for DE.

There is an upgrade for your A/O separator too. Here is the part number 996-107-926-00. This is a PAG only part I think but you should be able to order it for your car. 99-04 996. Just FYI. Erik Johnson GBox Sales Manager [phone removed] work [phone removed] cell
