Don't be surprised if the engine needs a rebuild, in which case go with a good low km used one and ditch the tune.
Is the turbo okay? How much did they increase the boost with the tune?
50 cl, Half liter
I noticed some oil under the engine
30 hp. From 140 hp to 170 hp.
That's what I suspected. It sounds like you have a small leak or weeping, not a big concern. The iron could be from the cam chain or camshaft but try a 5w40 or even 15w40 HDEO in your climate, go 5K km and retest.
Hi.
But VW recommends 5W35, reference 507 000
