Hi from the UK, I’m new here and to B6 S4’s. So far I’m loving the V8 but having a little issue with smoke
The car is using a bit of oil, little leak on the rocker gaskets but it seemed to do it more after a bit of fast driving. Had a little bit of random smoke coming from it, panicked at first like you do owning an S4 but have managed to put it down to clogged pcv/breather pipes, same happened with the spider hose on my B5 S4
It’s not smoking enough or consistently to be the valve seals or scored bores (no smoke or anything with going up to 5-6krpm and then decel’ing)
It’s pretty much the same as in the vid on the topic posted the other day

So I cleaned the 2 pipes coming from the rocker covers and they were pretty crudded up with sludge, swapped the pcv valve out and took it for a spin, zero smoke at all.
Whipped the pipes off again to see and noticed that the T piece they connect to had some sludge in it also
Couple of questions;
I know that from the T piece there’s another pipe that leads off down to the driver’s side of the engine but can’t see where, anyone know?
Also if I can’t clear the pipes out what are the part numbers for a new set of hoses and I’ll prob put a new suction jet on there too
Engine code is BBK
The rockers will be getting sealed on friday along with the oil check valves and jet swapping, valley pan gasket, oil filter o-rings and inlet flapper actuator and fitting put on
Thanks in advance
