Hi Community,
I have an 04 Audi A4 3.0 Quattro with 128,779 miles that's got at least one issue I can't really figure out. It burns quite a bit of oil and when I start the car, a good amount of white smoke comes from the exhaust. I don't see anymore smoke until again after about 10-15 mins of driving. I bought the car from someone who had it sitting for a year so I've tried to burn through all the old gas by driving near empty a few times which may or may not have caused some of the below codes. I also see some smoke on the driver side of the motor but can't really see where exactly its coming from. Also, my oil filler cap looks a bit milky. The car does not lose coolant nor have I seen it overheat. I've heard this could all be due to a failing PCV valve. Also, I'm guessing I've got a leaking valve cover gasket. Before I start ordering parts and replacing them, would these be the correct places to start? Here's the VCDS scan:
