Cant work it out
If anyone has any ideas please let me know
My 93wrx
i've got a smell of oil mostly when im driving above 4,000rpm ie when the turbo kicks in
If i drive it with no vigour theres no smell
If i rev it up at stand still past 4k no smell
theres no oil on the exhaust for definate and only a damp patch around the o/s rocker (not dripping)
I dont seem to be using any oil or very very little
any ideas wherre i can start looking or what it is
Thanks
Karl
