Default Cabin airflow / intake

1995 Audi 90 Cabriolet

I have some oil burning fumes coming into the cabin when the car comes to a stop and then engine is warm. I know that I need to find the oil leak. The entire bottom of the engine is covered in oil. I have wiped it down and can not narrow it down. I am not loosing a lot of oil.

My question is: Does anyone have a airflow diagram. I am looking to find out how the air gets into the cabin. I have the Bentley and it does not go into that.

Thanks,

Ralf

Have you inspected or serviced your PCV system? Excess pressure can cause or exacerbate an oil leak.

Are your cam seals starting to leak? This is a common failure point on various VW engines. It is sometimes related to PCV blockage (see above).
