        Plenty as in millions to get that sort of result! The engine has had it Andrew.
        Walk away IMO.

            Imagine what the dealer's reaction would be if I literally dropped the filler cap and ran out of there :P

                Now you're talking! Where did you find that one? It hasn't had the chassis extended and the rear suspension is intact.

                I see you've also posted it here before

                    ahh catch cans. These things aren't too good for just condensation but more for "blow by" when you crank the boost. If your running a stock motor, stock turbo setup and the standard boost levels, i wouldn't waste my time with one.
                    That yellow grease is water and oil mixed as mentioned. it could be an easy head gasket up to a crack in an oil gallery etc. Full head replacement. Yet imagine all of the oil is now contaminated and its going all the way through the blood stream of the motor. old age will set in like cancer and shes stuffed...
