ok, so ive put it all back together and it looks like i have the same problem. On 22nd Aug, 2011 eden7842 said:
its running like a sack of shit in general. runs lean before boost, then perfect on for about 500 - 1000rpms untill it does the cut out thing. just drove a 35min drive home which should of took 15. some one else already pointed out that it says on the tin that the oil was not suitable for a turbo engine? I'm not having a go, but simply trying to suggest a possibe cause for your oil to turn to sludge in such short time scale. I have never seen anything like it, and i'd be surprised if anyone else has.

All very well and good but I dont use comma classic either, i use the sonic, here are the data sheets-not a million percent different but clearly a different product

For me cant beat comma sonic, there is a bloke at my local autojumble who does it for £16 a gallon, I usually get all that he has. Halfords Classic is made by Comma - same as the Comma Classic stuff. On 18th Oct, 2013 apbellamy said:

Make sure you pop the oil gallery plugs out and clean everything out if you haven't already. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

you could try and it helps to use 50/50 cheap O oil and parafin 3 fluses and then one oil flush and a few filters inbetween the the goo oil and new filter

right well i changed the oil a week ago (but not the filter) after my head cracked and i was burning coolent. the oil wasent that contaminated that came out. thats your problem, you should have changed the oil filter, and run a flushing agent through it aswell. i highly doubt it was the halfords engine oil, halfords oil is made by comma, and comma is one of the worlds leading and largest oil refining companies, (they are so because they manufacture oil for the likes of wilkinson, tesco, halfords etc etc etc) i agree with others though that i wouldnt put cheap oil anywhere near a high performance engine, oter than purely running in, |
