Oil plugs and coils along with a new aos because my car started smoking on start like quite a bit of smoke, so anyway I went ahead and replaced it, which fixed the smoking issue but then a week later I was told during my starts that there's a puff of blue smoke so I went and checked the vent line and long and behold saw oil drip when I disconnected it, so I got a replacement from fcp which I installed the next day, drove it for the proceeding few days and recorded every engine start and noticed there's still smoke coming out and infact earlier in the day I started her and saw the puff of smoke on my rear view and watched as it blew away.

I did do the oil filler cap test which I think it passes because I can still remove the filler cap tho I can feel it trying to suck back in which I think its normal, tho after I remove the cap idle rises a bit to around 800 and it starts misfiring.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

So I just did full maintenance recently, ie. Oil plugs and coils along with a new aos because my car started smoking on start like quite a bit of smoke, so anyway I went ahead and replaced it, which fixed the smoking issue but then a week later I was told during my starts that there's a puff of blue smoke so I went and checked the vent line and long and behold saw oil drip when I disconnected it, so I got a replacement from fcp which I installed the next day, drove it for the proceeding few days and recorded every engine start and noticed there's still smoke coming out and infact earlier in the day I started her and saw the puff of smoke on my rear view and watched as it blew away. So I again checked the vent line and the stuck a finger into the aos and got soaked with oil. So am I just unlucky and getting defective aos? The reason I'm suspecting the aos is because of a) the oil on vent line and the aos itself, b) there's on a puff though big give or take only happens on start doesn't last so it's just that one second that all this comes out. I'm getting yet another aos replacement arriving tomorrow which I'll install and see from there. I have a 2007 cayman s. I did do the oil filler cap test which I think it passes because I can still remove the filler cap tho I can feel it trying to suck back in which I think its normal, tho after I remove the cap idle rises a bit to around 800 and it starts misfiring. And I also started noticing more smoke is coming from one side of the exhaust on the videos... the exhaust is ex pipe center exit.

POST 4Original post

So i just got off the phone with my mechanic and I did kinda forget when I changed my oil and aos together I overfilled the car and drove it for quite a bit... tho at that time no smoke at all, so I'm guessing it's finally time all the oil is getting burnt that was ingested

POST 5Original post

You may end up having to disassemble the intake and cleaning it out to get rid of the smoking..

POST 7Original post

I just had a bad AOS and when I took the oil cap off I could feel it lightly pulling and the idle changes. With my new good AOS there is absolutely no suction or pulling when I take the cap off, but the idle still changes, so that part is normal. Also it's true that once you get oil in the intake it doesn't really just go away. It needs disassembly and cleaning.
