Grey Sludge

I seem to have a large amount of grey sludge coming from the breather hose to the air intake housing.
Can this be flushed out in any way.

You could have water in the oil ! Possible head gasket Big Cry

Do you do lots of short journeys , a long journey burns of the water,
short journeys mix the water and oil which then looks like salard cream.

Check the coolent and engine oil levels , high oil level low water level ( possible head gasket)

Lets hope it's not the Turbo too becuase that will make you Cry if it needs replacing

Had mine replaced under warranty a few year back, ( parts on back order for 3 weeks, back then)

Hopr you get it all sorted. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
