Message	Went on a drive with the boys on Sunday. Car was running perfect, until i felt slight loss of power and huge clouds of smoke followed shortly. Pulled over, popped the hood to find lots of oil all over the battery and the passenger side engine bay (RHD). Got it towed home. Today found time to inspect and found the passenger side PCV pipe came off the cylinder head cover, dipstick out, and cylinder No 5 is dead, couldn't check No 6, but tomorrow i will pull the plugs out and check the compression. My question is what would've caused the excessive crankcase pressure? My PCV valves and pipes are all new. Never lost oil pressure, even now starts fine, no smoke, no strange noises. It all happened at ~265km/h
