EA82T Oil q's


Recommended Posts

My EA82T leaks and burns oil. I gave it an oil change with Mobil 1 the firest week I got it. It has been leaking a few drops, but burns about 1 qt. every 1000 miles.

When I open the fill cap, steam of some sort comes out when engine is warm. This steam makes a yellowy-white gunk on the cap that smells like exhaust gas.

I haven't seen coolant on dipstick or during the oil change. I haven't checked coolant level at all, but temps are fine. I can't see my exhaust when driving, but it is leaving black on my bumper.

 

What's wrong? Rings? Head gasket?

 

PS - Why exactly does the Brake Fluid light come on?
