   My vts keeps going through oil filler caps, 3 in last 6 months. My only thought is over pressured? The breather pipe is clear.

   Is it throwing oil out from the breather pipe too?
   
   Get a compression test done will tell you if you have fucked rings.

   No oil coming out breather. That's what I thought, but no purple smoke?

   Fit an oil cap from a 106 gti(they seal better)
