bluemippy Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 This may be a strange one for you but I keep getting an oil smell whilst I am driving my car sometimes just a whiff sometimes quite strong and sometimes never. Checked the oil still full. no leaks visable, a couple off people I have spoken to have said possible split in my breather pipe, has anybody ever come across this before?

WES180 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Had a split breather on my wifes Punto so check that out first. It was a common fault on the Punto until they revised the rubber pipe with a silicone version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dales Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Sounds like a split breather pipe to me too. Mates Astra had a similar problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
