I assume you've checked the FAQ-especially crankcase vent stuff-can you say "oil trap"?If it's not a case of excessive crankcase pressure,check for leaks-I had a strange leak on my 940T that only ocurred at speed-bad seal on the turbo oil return line (my fault after I replaced the exhaust manifold gasket and messed up the reinstall of that stuff).Actually,I'm not sure if you have a four or six cylinder car-if a six,try thicker oil (10W-40 or thicker)if this helps,OK-if not,you may have stuck oil control ring(s)-try some kind of snake oil to break 'em loose. Don't give up-it's probably a good car! sredwine 94 944T 135K,98 V90 63K
