a clogged pick up would not explain missing 3 quarts of oil thats for sure. It wpuld point to oil delievery issues if the pick u pwas clogged.

Splash some coolant from the tank onto the hot manifold. Does it bubble up or just fizzle out. If it stays for longer than say the time it takes to burn off water, 3-5 seconds you have oil in your coolant.

on a side note, here was the fan idea. while we were putting his car back together( core support, radiator, condensor) it was mad cold outside and we were in a garage, but it was cold like 12*F. well there was this space heater and we had a spare radiator fan and jumper cables. such as the scale image shown below. and this was gonna heat our garage like a turbo fan... never got the chance to try it so oh well. probably wouldnt of done much anyway lol...

No one cares about your failed heater fan lol...Thats why they invented torpedo heaters for optimal heating ability!! lol...

Picked up PCV check valve and the Commi Breather I think he called it lol...Sun Motors told me the last person put the wrong one on for my engine code, so he gave me correct one. They also said if its not my Pcv/breather creating my loss of oil issue, that it is pretty certain its the turbo.

Also will the avant only fit on avants? or can I find Sedan parts to fit...like bumpers, hoods, door fins...etc...etc...

Avant rear seats are different too, and possibly rear doors and obviously the rear quarters / hatch

You guys are awesome thank you....I need a front bumper...prefer silver but will settle for less. And if I can find s4 style cheap then I'll get that.

We ran into a snag tonite replacing the check valve...the plastic/rubber tube right under the intake mani snapped. So we sit till tomorrow to source one out ...I'm thinking the 034 silicone replacement system for a final fix...but to get me rolling again we will try to find the oem....anyone near pa..Nj...and has one or ideas ill be grateful.

the plastic tube that connects the check valve? theres no silicone option for that I don't think. All the 034 silicone lines are breathers. if its the link i think your talking about just tape it, along as 99% of the air is not leaking your good.

We figured out that the part that broke I think is the fatter twisted end. That's what initially broke. Everything is is just gonna get replaced for ***** and giggles.
