Blowby Issues
So it appears as though I am experiencing some blowby issues. No oil leaks, and the oil is not milky at all. However, when you take the oil fill cap off their is some condensation in there and I am burning oil.
Now today, it appears as though their is oil all over the left side of the motor by the intake cover and by the timing cover. Any suggestions on what could be causing this issue.
I have also noticed a loud hum under acceleration. PCV valves possibly? Thanks for any input.

[left]That would help huh? It’s a 2005 2.4i.
Car has 4 new tires, new rear end links, upper and lower control arms. And all new suspension in the front. This is the last thing that I am trying to clean up. I’m hoping this blow by is causing the loud humming.

Blow by can be measured so do that.Moisture in the oil is fairly common on vehicles in colder climates when the car is driven short distances where the car doesn't run long enough to get warm.Using dyno oil would maximize this effect.Seriously doubt that a humming noise you might hear is the result of a blow by.Where do you hear that noise anyway?Could you describe it in more detail?
