Have any ideas for me? Recently during heavy rains my '02 Passat 1.8T gets water in the crank case. When I start the car it produces a lot of steam from the exhaust and will not run properly. This is the second time in the last 3 months that this has happened. The first time the dealer mechanics suggested vandalism that someone intentionally put water in the engine. They changed the oil twice to get out the excess liquid and sent me on my way.
The car has been parked at a 15 degree angle, nose up, in my driveway during heavy rain events when this happens.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how the water is getting in to the crank case it might save me a ton of time with the dealer.
Thanks in advance.
