oily EGR

[dasboot]

I did my quarterly egr inspection and cleaning. I noticed oil residue at the bottom of the egr and at the upper section by the top o-ring. The egr was pretty dry. Could this mean the oil cooler is going bad? oil and coolant levels normal. Engine temps normal. No smoking. The last time I did a cleaning I rubbed some oil on the O-rings. Maybe the oil dripped down? Any thoughts? Probably time for a new cooler and a delete.

you might be over filling the crankcase when you change the engine oil

"Wet stacking"

CCV vapor and carbon mixture, would be my guess without actually seeing it in person.

Can also be caused by incomplete combustion, ****ty fuel, extended idle time, etc.
