Atlantic Canada
Hello everyone,
While driving from Toronto Ontario Canada, through Quebec, Bew Brunswick and Nova Scotia to my military base in Halifax I had to travel through some horrific weather -30 to -40 below freezing degree weather and challenging road conditions.
Long story short, my conclusion is that the CTS Turbo Africa plate and the Racingline catch can both froze causing excessive pressure build up in the motor, which caused a plastic gromit on the valve cover to "pop" out which caused an excessive amount of oil to be sprayed everywhere. I put the gromit back and topped the oil up and cautiously drove to Halifax NS.
So far the car has been running well, and the oil level has stayed the same. The oil temperature is fine and there aren't any leaks that I have noticed since the initial discovery.
More news to follow, but here is the video link.
